While reading through the most recent Mens Health magazine, I came across an article featuring one of the world's top real world, functional, knows what the hell he is talking about, and walks the walk strength and conditioning and everything else trainer, Steve Maxwell. At over 60 years old, he moves better than all of us! So what I decided to do was state some of his quotes from the article. Read, learn, reflect, and take action!!
-The human body is the ultimate fitness machine. It's the only tool you'll ever need to get in incredible shape.
-Strength is a skill influenced by a functional understanding of leverage.
-Increasing mobility is the secret to unlocking greater strength.
-Like most animals, human beings are designed to be mobile - to run, walk, jog, crawl, swim, climb, throw, jump, and when necessary, fight. But, the body is very efficient. It adapts quickly to whatever position or movement pattern it finds itself in most often.
-Aging isn't a cellular process as much as it is a loss of mobility. Most people have simply forgotten how to move.
-You can't stop aging, but you do have some control over its speed, and if you know what you're doing, you can slow it to a crawl.
