The Principles, Science &
Mindsets Of Healthy
Movement

The Modern Truth
As a species we now have exercise and sedentary
living patterns that are completed TOXIC and
DEFICIENT.
Our movement patterns are completely incongruent
with our innate genetic requirements for healthy cell
function and this results in pandemic levels of heart
disease, diabetes, cancer, depression and every other
chronic illness
WAKE UP WELLNESS _______ MASTER YOUR LIFESTYLE, TRANSFORM YOUR HEALTH ______ AWAKEN - FEED - MOVE - RENEW

Humans Are The Worlds
Sickest Animal Species
Why?
Because we are the only
species on earth that
has dramatically altered
the ways that we EAT,
MOVE, THINK and
FUNCTION away from
what we GENETICALLY
REQUIRE

The Solution Is NOT
Medicine
How could a drug or surgery EVER solve problems
created by a lack of movement and expenditure of
energy? What drug could ever solve the problem of
poor posture and poor neuromuscularskeletal
function?
If we try to solve these problems with drugs ad
surgeries we will NEVER be able to prevent illness
and we will NEVER experience a state of robust
natural health

Basic Science
The most CRITICAL thing to understand about
physical movement is that it DIRECTLY IMPACTS the
function of your cells, and therefore your overall
health, vitality, appearance and longevity
The is no escaping this fact. There is no back up
system in your human physiology that will allow you
to be sedentary and unﬁt without SEVERE health
consequences

The 2 Most Important
Questions To Understand
When It Comes To Exercise
And Your Health….

1. How much exercise represents
a PURE and SUFFICIENT amount
for human beings 
 
I.e. Result in the full expression
of HEALTH & VITALITY

2. How reduced must our exercise
habits get in order to be TOXIC &
DEFICIENT "
!
I.e. Result in ILLNESS &
SUFFERING

The Amazing Part..
YOU have the ability to
DIRECTLY inﬂuence your
genetic expression of health
and vitality through the
decisions that you make to add
in health promoting and illness
preventing movement choices.
You can CHOOSE to make
choices that are congruent with
your innate genetic blueprint

The Fundamentals:"
- Science "
- Principles 
- Mindsets"

Physical Inactivity is
ABNORMAL
“In other words, physical inactivity is an abnormal event for a
genome programmed to expect physical activity, thus explaining,
in part, the genesis of how physical inactivity leads to metabolic
dysfunctions and eventual metabolic disorders such as
atherosclerosis, hypertension, obesity, type 2 diabetes and so
forth” 
“From the stand point of our late Paleolithic ancestors, physical
activity is abnormal; it can produce a pathophysiological
phenotype and is a major contributor to chronic health conditions”
Booth et al. Waging war on physical inactivity: using modern molecular ammunition against an ancient enemy. J Appl Physiol. 93:
3-30, 2002.

Daily Physical Activity Is
ESSENTIAL
“At present human genes and human lives are incongruent,
especially in afﬂuent Western Nations. When our current genome
was originally selected, daily physical exertion was obligatory;
our biochemistry and physiology are designed to function
optimally in such circumstances.”
Our physiology and our internal chemistry can only work properly
when we feed it a diet that is rich in the essential nutrient called
MOVEMENT.

Exercise Is A Nutrient
Many people have been brainwashed into thinking that
exercise is optional. Somehow has become OK to choose
not to exercise.
This leads to a sporadic approach to exercising -
bootcamps etc to lose weight or look good for special
occasions
The reality is the exercise supplies essential nutrients
required for the expression of health. Our genes require
stimulus from exercise in order to produce healthy
physiology, without it, we are literally deﬁcient and sick.
The sciences proves this.
The only lasting solution is to recognise these truths and
adopt a LIFESTYLE that takes them into account

Proper Posture Is Equally
Important
The same truths hold for your structural
health
Exercise is less beneﬁcial and you are
less able to do it if your structure is weak
and misaligned
Adding in genetically congruent
movement & postural patterns restores
the normal healthy cell function by
restoring the healthy environmental
stimulus to your genes

Exercise And Proper
Posture Are Nutrients
It is IMPOSSIBLE to be well without providing your
cells with the adequate exercise and a good postural
requirements for the genetic expression of health
If you are deﬁcient or toxic with respect to exercise
or postural patterns you are NOT in a state of health -
you are in a state of physiology that is susceptible to
illness

A University of Bristol-led study found 80% failed to
meet the government target of taking moderate
exercise at least 12 times in a four-week period

The fact that the majority if
people in western society fail to
achieve the fundamentals of
healthy movement is directly
linked to EVERY chronic illness
and ALL the accompanying
symptoms
In this failure is found the one of
the major causes of chronic
pain, cancer, heart disease,
stroke, diabetes, obesity, acid
reﬂux, indigestion, depression,
fatigue, low fertility, low sex
drive, arthritis, osteoporosis
etc..

You Are A Wild Animal
Every wild animal in existence is constantly on the
move
The only place you will ﬁnd a sedentary, overweight,
de-conditioned animal is in a zoo or domesticated in
a home (where it is abused with poor diet and not
enough exercise)

What would happen to a
chimpanzee if you denied it
the ability to move, exercise
and expend energy?
Clearly it would get as sick
as the average industrialised
westerner!

Innate Movement
Requirements
How Much Should I Exercise?
Our ancestors expended an
average of 25 kcal/kg/day
during physical activity!
This must be considered to be
the gold standard. The innate
required level for homeostasis
and health

Innate Movement
Requirements
The ‘average’ male of 80 Kg —> 2000
calories per day
The ‘average’ female of 50 Kg —> 1250
calories per day

Innate Movement
Requirements
What Does That Look Like?"
Jogging 2 hours
Walking >4 hours
Weight Training >3 hours
Interval Sprints 2 hours
Cycling 3.5 hours
Skipping Rope 2.5 hours
Dancing (mod) 3.5 hours

Innate Movement
Requirements
WOW!
★ Most will not reach those levels
★ Important to know what is innately required for
homeostasis
★ Choosing to not exercise is akin to suicide
★ Justifying being sedentary all day by going for a
‘workout’ is also suicidal behaviour
★ Best way to increase your activity levels is through your
daily lifestyle

Simple Ways To Increase
Your Activity Levels
Take the stairs, walk to work, walk to get
shopping, cycle to work/shops, join sports
clubs, organise walking lunch breaks, ﬁnd
active hobbies for after work, dance
We all have enough time!
Too tired? Oh the irony…

What’s The Solution?
★ This is the million dollar question!
★ How do we avoid all of that unnecessary suffering
and illness that results from not moving in ways that
satisfy our innate genetic requirements?
★ How do we ensure that we are moving enough to
be congruent with our genetic requirements?

What’s The Solution?
Simple!
1.Daily spinal hygiene exercises
2.Increase daily activity levels through lifestyle
3.The Core 4 Habits and the Reboot Program
4.Understand how to apply the science: 4 keys to
optimising physical health and performance
