Why You Don’t Have to Settle for Simply Aging with Kelly Starrett
The BluePrint with Dr. Erik Korem
Restore Your Range of Motion
If you're struggling with some basic mid range, like if you can't do an air squat with your hip crease below the knee, that's a real mid. You've got to decongest those tissues. And remember pain does not mean injury. Pain does not mean a tissue is broken or traumatized. It's a request for change. So one of the things we can do to improve the efficiency of this system is to restore you back to native ranges.
Kelly Starrett, Doctor of Physical Therapy, New York Times Bestseller Author, Coach, Physical Therapist, and speaker, shares how we all can feel better and stronger and regain and maintain total well-being in our 40's, 50's, and beyond. Kelly explains why we don't have to settle for loss of range of motion, debilitating joint pain, and general suffering as we age. Kelly has revolutionized performance therapy and self-care for pro athletes and Olympic gold medalists since 2007. In this series of episodes, he'll be bringing you practical tips you can use today to improve your health and quality of life.

QUOTES
“The key is using stress and adapting to it and improving. That’s what high performance is to me, the ability to adapt rapidly so you can achieve your potential. There are five key pillars to creating the conditions for adaptability: sleep, exercise, mental resilience, nutrition, and community/relationships.” - Dr. Erik Korem
"Stress is your brain and body preparing you to do something effortful." Dr. Alex Auerbach
“I maybe have a different concept on leadership. To me, leading is a verb. If you’re leading, you’re a leader. If you’re swimming, you’re a swimmer, if you’re driving, you’re a driver. If you’re leading, you’re by definition, a leader. I define leading as being looked to in a particular moment to decide or perform an action based on your unique gifts and abilities. So by that definition, everybody is a leader. All rank and role really describe is how many people are hoping you get it right when it’s your turn to wear the weight.” - Clint Bruce
"Attention is the currency of performance." - Dr. Peter Haberl
“That’s what I’ve discovered in the lives of brilliant, prolific, healthy creatives, is that they have networks of people they leverage in the course of their work. That they learn from, that they were challenged by, that they gave great insight and purview into their own life and work, in such a way that they were able to receive feedback that helped them get better at what they do.” - Todd Henry
"Restful and fulfilling sleep enables you to grow, adapt, and thrive. It creates the conditions for adaptation, so you can pursue audacious goals and thrive in uncertainty." - Dr. Erik Korem
"Most exercise programs fail, not because the reps and sets are poorly designed, but because the program doesn't adjust for how much stress your body can adapt to that day! That's why Dr. Chris Morris' research and practical application of fluid periodization is the key for unlocking your performance potential." - Dr. Erik Korem
