| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome back to another episode of Chasing Excellence. My name is Patrick Hanks. |
| 0:05.3 | Every week here on the show we dedicate some time to exploring how we can live a life of better |
| 0:09.2 | health and increased fulfillment. Ben and I thank you for joining us this week. I am excited to |
| 0:16.0 | bring you a conversation with Kelly and Juliet Storette, authors of the new book, Built to Move. |
| 0:22.4 | Kelly and Juliet are CrossFit OGs and world class thinkers and trainers in this conversation. We |
| 0:28.4 | get into the 10 vital signs of durability, the power of walking more and what it means to rewild the |
| 0:35.2 | body and much much more. Before we dive into the show, if you are not yet subscribed or following |
| 0:41.3 | wherever you are watching this or listening, please do, it will help ensure you do not miss another |

| 1:23.2 | language to springboard into these 10 vital signs? So we get Jay. Oh, I'm waiting for you. |
| 1:30.8 | All right. Is your one chance? Here's here. Here we go. How much time do we have? So, you know, |
| 1:36.5 | I think what's really interesting is in the last decade, 15 years plus, we have gotten really good |
| 1:42.4 | at developing capacities in human beings. I mean, fitter, stronger, more skilled. It's bananas, |
| 1:49.2 | particularly in this community. We really have seen just a complete wholesale transformation of |
| 1:54.1 | what is possible and how much volume an athlete can handle. Yeah, it's bonkers. That doesn't |
