The MOVEMENT Movement
Steven Sashen
Welcome to The MOVEMENT Movement -- the podcast for people who want the TRUTH about having a healthy, happy, strong body.
We'll be breaking through the mythology, confusion and sometimes outright lies about what it takes to walk, run, hike, do yoga, paddle board, lift... or whatever you do. I'm here to help you do it better and have more fun.
It's called The MOVEMENT Movement because We're creating a movement. Making natural movement to the obvious choice the way natural FOOD is currently.

Episode 13: Barefoot Studies
You know, Vibram, the guys who made the FiveFinger shoes, there was a lawsuit against them because it showed that what they do is not good for you, that you get hurt wearing their shoes, right? Maybe not. You know there's studies that show that if you run barefoot, you're going to get injured, right? Not so much. Let's take a look at that in today's episode of The MOVEMENT Movement, the podcast for people who want to know the truth about how to have a happy, healthy, strong body.

Episode 11: High Intensity Training
Should you be running longer, slower, or shorter, faster, which is better for your health. Let's take a look today at high intensity interval training in The MOVEMENT Movement podcast. People have been talking about it for a while but lately I've just been seeing more and more people coming out with courses on High Intensity Interval Training, and saying why doing high intensity intervals is better for you than running long, as doing long slow distance, whether you're running or on an elliptical or on a cycle, whatever it is. Hi, I'm Steven Sashen and The MOVEMENT Movement podcast is for people who want to know the truth about what it takes to have a happy, healthy, strong body. We get rid of the mythology and the propaganda and while sometimes the outright lies that people tell you about what it takes to do that by moving naturally, you can follow us at www.jointhemovementmovement.com.

Episode 09: How To Pick a Good Running Shoe
Hi, Steven Sashen here, and in this video, you’re going to learn how to pick a good running shoe. The information comes from, in large part, this paper from the American College of Sports Medicine. It's also coming from experience that I have, so I'll be adding my editorial, but most of this is coming from the ACSM and their recommendations. So, let's just jump right in. The ACSM says “Running shoes should be selected after careful consideration. With so many brands and styles of shoes on the marketing today, it is important to find the best fit for your feet and needs. There is no ‘right shoe’ that fits all runners. However, research and injury patterns have shown there are some general characteristics of a good, safe running shoe.” Now, before we get started, I want to warn you that what you're about to learn flies completely in the face of what you will hear from most people trying to sell you running shoes. You go to your average running shoe store; they will tell you the exact opposite of what you're about to hear. Remember, this is research coming from the American College of Sports Medicine, not someone who has been paid to say certain things from a running shoe company. Some may argue, “But you own a shoe company…” Trust me, you'll hear the difference between what I'm saying and what someone who's being paid to say things that are the opposite of what the American College of Sports Medicine is saying. Here we go. Find us online, go to jointhemovementmovement.com. You can participate in the conversation there, or that will point you to the various social media channels where you can engage with us on Twitter, on Facebook, on Youtube, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. And if you have any questions or comments, or you want to tell me about someone who should be on the podcast, drop me an email, send it to move@jointhemovementmovement.com.

Episode 08: Shoe Company That Cried Wolf
We all know the story of the boy who cried wolf, and at the end of the story, the villagers stopped running to find the nonexistent wolf, which didn't end up very well for the boy. Well, what if there was an industry that's been effectively and essentially crying wolf? The difference here is that every time they say, “if we keep running and we pull out our wallets and give them money to get the wolf, that isn't there.” Well, that's what we're going to be talking about on today's episode of The MOVEMENT Movement, the podcast for people who want to know the truth about how to have a healthy, happy, strong body by doing what bodies are made to do, and that is move. I'm Steven Sashen. I'm the CEO of Xero Shoes. That's XeroShoes.com, and I'm here to help you do whatever it is you'd like to do…walk, hike, do yoga, do CrossFit, paddleboard.

Episode 07: Orthotics
Over the years, I spent thousands of dollars on orthotics and inserts, that I put in my shoes to try to make my feet feel better, to make it more comfortable for me to walk and run, take stress off my ankles, my knees, my hips, and my back. Did they work? Let's find out. Welcome to The MOVEMENT Movement podcast, the podcast where you really want to know the truth about how to have a happy, healthy, strong body and to let your body do what it likes to do best, and that is move. Bend and flex and move and feel. We're going to be exploring and breaking through some of the mythology and propaganda, and sometimes outright lies that people tell you, and learn what it really takes to be able to walk, to run, to hike, to swim, to move, to do whatever you like to do, enjoyably and safely and healthily and have more fun. I'm Steven Sashen, the CEO from Xero Shoes. It is a pleasure to have you here for The MOVEMENT Movement, podcast. And we call it The MOVEMENT Movement because we are trying to create a movement.

Episode 06: Shoes Worse Than Cigarettes
They hide the fact that they know it's bad for you. They even hide information that other people create about the fact that their product is bad for you, and what's actually good for you. They make a product that is consistently and reliably creating health problems, and yet they just keep making it over and over and over and over. Convincing us that it's actually good for you. Think you know the industry that we're talking about? Well, if you look at the title of this podcast, you might have it. But if not, maybe it'll be a surprise and let's come back to that in just a moment. Welcome to The MOVEMENT Movement, the podcast for people who want the truth about having a healthy, happy, strong body and enjoying what bodies are made to do, and that is move. In The MOVEMENT Movement, podcast, and in our movement, we are cutting through the mythology, the confusion, the propaganda, and sometimes the outright lies about what it takes to walk, to run, to hike, to jump, to lift, to do everything that bodies love to do. And they will do that enjoyably, do it better, and have more fun. If you have any questions, send them to us here, or just email: move@jointhemovementmovement.com. You can visit us online at jointhemovementmovement.com, and that will point you to all the other places you can engage with us on Facebook, on YouTube, and all the rest.
