Move Your DNA

Restore Your Health Through Natural Movement

Book • 2020

In 'Move Your DNA,' Katy Bowman explains the science behind the need for natural movement, highlighting how modern lifestyles lead to 'movement malnutrition' and various health issues.

The book provides a comprehensive three-level exercise program, alignment checks, and simple lifestyle changes to help readers transition to healthier, naturally moving bodies.

It compares the movements of hunter-gatherers to those in modern society and offers corrective exercises to address 'sticky spots' in the body.

Bowman's approach is humorous, passionate, and science-based, making it accessible to a wide range of readers from couch potatoes to professional athletes.
