Why we were Born to Walk - Interview, James Earls

  • May-21-2018
Audio Description

James Earls, author of “Born to Walk”, talks to us about an important part of the movement conversation: fascia and bipedalism. Fascia is the 3-D spider web of fibrous, gluey, and wet proteins that hold our bones all together in their proper placement. Bipedalism, as I’m sure you know, is the act of locomoting upright on two legs. In our conversation, we explore James’ fascinating knowledge on movement efficiency and how we may have evolved through walking.

  • Fascia is multi-factored and exciting, and so it’s unfortunate that it has been ignored for the past 2,000 years in anatomy.
