Summary

We often think of nutrition as things like protein, carbs, and fats. However, movement is an important nutrient also. We need the right balance of movement nutrients (cardio, strength training, and stretching) to maintain optimum health. Additionally, we are now learning that movement is required on a cellular level for healthy cell function. Today we speak with movement specialist, Katy Bowman, to elaborate.

0:41.8	Hey, everyone. Welcome to Dr. Rusho Radio. This is Dr. Rusho. I am here with Katie Bowman,
0:46.9	and today we're going to be talking about movement and movement as nutrition, I guess,
0:52.2	to put it broadly, but very excited to have this conversation
0:55.2	with a really, really sharp gal. Katie, welcome to this show, and thanks for being here.
0:59.6	Thank you for having me.

1:07.0	well, fairly simple. It's something simple to do. People don't need a lot of equipment or lab testing or have to buy stuff. So it's a simple type of intervention, which is this nutritious movement that I know you speak a lot about that can easily give people what I think is a pretty good return on their time and energy invested.

1:48.0	human movement but i guess we think of kinesiology as human movement but it's the it's the mechanical
1:52.9	principles the newtonian physics um the pressures forces tensions, how that all works.
2:05.9	I started, I think I started in movement, like a lot of people start in movement
