WORKING WITH pro athletes, the military, and civilian fitness heads in the early 2000s, physical therapist Kelly Starrett noticed a recurring problem. Many people were in pain and lacked a complete range of motion for basic moves like squats and lunges. That inspired Starrett to create what he called "mobilizations," which take your joints to different places, unstick compressed soft tissue (skin, nerves, muscles, and tendons), and ingrain new patterns of movement. That helped birth mobility training. Starrett's website, MobilityWOD-renamed the Ready State in 2019-popularized daily mobility work like squat challenges and foam rolling, and his books (Becoming a Supple Leopard, Deskbound) espoused more and better movement. Starrett, now 49, is a tattooed, balding canary in the coal mine of wellness who has been warning of the dangers of a sedentary lifestyle for a while. During a Zoom interview with MH, he's on the floor with his feet down and his knees raised, sitting on a lacrosse ball to smash his right glute, and he's really frustrated.
