Kelly Starrett shares the simple secret for stretching your limits.
ARE YOU KEEPING UP? IT’S NOT EASY, WE KNOW . Your life is accelerating, rushed into hyperdrive by a tech sector that wants you to change your approach to fitness, nutrition, health, and your mind. Of course change is good – but it can also be confusing and exasperating. New fads and movements, complete with cultlike leaders and obsessive followers, compete for your attention and your money. That’s where Men’s Health comes in. You don’t have to breathlessly chase the next big thing. We took a step back to assess the landscape of innovation, and then zoomed in tight on the world’s most innovative people, ideas, and trends. We’ve also found the tech products that are going to help you. Then we weeded out the hype to create an instantly actionable (and fun!) plan you can use to optimise your life. Let’s get started.
TRY THIS RIGHT NOW: GET OFF YOUR couch and sink into a full squat with your feet flat on the floor.
Now stay there for 10 minutes.
To physical therapist Kelly Starrett, you’re not truly fit until you can do that. This simple challenge, issued six years ago on YouTube by Starrett, owner of a San Francisco CrossFit box, addresses a fitness weakness that most men ignore, and it exemplifies his philosophy.
