Summary

Bestselling author, speaker, and a leader of the Movement movement, biomechanist Katy Bowman is changing the way we move and think about our need for movement. Bowman teaches movement globally and has written 9 previous books on the importance of a diverse movement diet, including Move Your DNA, Dynamic Aging, and Grow Wild. Her latest book, Rethink Your Position, is a much-needed guide to how our bodies move, why we need to move more, and the intentional steps anyone can take to feel, move, and even think better--one part at a time.

Rethink Your Position and Built to Move have so much in common in terms of the mission and goal to focus on the basics. We get into all the ways in which movement is being left behind in modern life and how to combat this trend.

0:11.6	You got it.
0:13.5	This episode of the Ready State podcast is brought to you by Element.
0:20.6	I see regularly that people are going hard in the paint, hot yoga, sauna, brutal cardio
0:29.4	conditioning, or long events, and they aren't replacing any electrolytes.
0:33.8	And what I mean that is salts.
0:35.1	And I'm not just talking about good old-fashioned table salt. You probably could be deficient in a lot of your electrolytes. And what I mean that is salts. And I'm not just talking about good old fashioned table salt.
0:38.1	You probably could be deficient in a lot of your electrolytes if you're not actively replenishing them.
0:44.5	And thinking proactively about it. That's actually a big problem for me. If I go to hot yoga or do a really
0:49.8	long sauna, even if it's like a long low sauna, I often get a headache if I haven't been
0:56.2	really mindful of my electrolytes. And not just while I'm in the sauna, I need to kind of go into
1:02.4	the sauna like pre-hydrated. And so one of the ways that I do that, so I avoid getting headache in
1:07.6	hot yoga or taking long saunas is making sure that my electrolytes are on. And remember that element actually is covering a whole host of electrolytes. It's not just salt and flavor. I mean, that would be good, right? And it does taste good. It does taste good. But, you know, one of the things that we see regularly is that athletes are working hard. We're not talking about if you're on keto.
1:28.9	We're not talking about just, you know, hey, should you salt or not.
1:31.5	But if you're sweating, you need to be thinking about electrolyte replacement.
1:36.2	The triathletes, the runners have been on this for a long time.
1:39.1	I think sometimes when more gym-based athletes are coming to some of these events,
1:43.4	it's not on their mind to think about replacing these essential electrolytes. You will not recover. You will not feel good. And you will not be able to go as hard tomorrow unless you're on it.
