Episode 19: The Role of Mobility in Longevity Cave Style
Today, we’re heading way back—even further back—to the days of caves and campfires to explore caveman-style mobility. What can our ancestors teach us about longevity and functional movement? A lot more than you might think! These early humans didn’t have ergonomic chairs, fancy gym equipment, or memory foam mattresses, yet their natural movement patterns allowed them to stay limber, strong, and functional throughout their lives.
