"Built to Move is more than an admonition to get up and move. It’s
an incredibly layered but easy-to-follow guide, happily logical and
progressive, full of pragmatic wisdom. It’s got everything you’d
expect from a good fitness book, including useful sidebars and
wonderfully personal anecdotes that are oddly relatable....Why do
we buy fitness books? [...] Because we’re looking for inspiration,
for motivation, for a reason to change. For once, we have a book
that offers up just that — fundamental physical change, for all the
right reasons."
—Tyghe Trimble, Fatherly
“Whether you are a professional athlete, a serious weekend warrior,
or, like most people, just trying to fit it in, Juliet and Kelly
are there every step of the way. The Starretts have created an
accessible path for helping us all live a more fulfilled and
pain-free life. There is a time and a place for getting obsessed
with how much weight one can lift or have fast someone is, but we
all need the basics to build our foundations upon true principles
spelled out in Built to Move.”
—Gabrielle Reece, professional athlete and bestselling author of My
Foot is Too Big for the Glass Slipper
"Built to Move is the definitive guide for building an all-around
healthy and high-performing body and mind. What makes Built to Move
so valuable is not just the extensive real-world experience that
went into formulating the protocols it describes, or the rigorous
peer-reviewed scientific studies those protocols are based on, but
its elegant simplicity. Built to Move makes exactly clear what we
all need to do, and when, and how, so that anyone can reach their
health goals, regardless of current fitness, income level, or life
demands. [This] should be (self-) assigned reading for anyone
looking to enhance their mental or physical health and
performance."
—Andrew Huberman, Professor of Neuroscience, Stanford University &
Host of The Huberman Lab Podcast
“Every time my body asks, 'What did you do to me?' I go to the

come true — a way to get ahead of the injuries before they
happen.”

say, you. The Starretts have written a sweeping yet
easy-to-understand and practical guide for anyone who wants to live
healthier in the 21st century, from professional athletes to those
well beyond retirement age. The book's strength lies in how it
blends the authors' decades of cutting-edge practice with breaking
science to help us live longer and better. Critically, Built to
Move inspires action. It changed how I live my life, and I'm better
for it. It'll do the same for you.”

the gym, and it's available to literally everyone."

we all need to feel vital and functional. This simple guide is the
body’s operational manual that we were not given at birth. This is

the moment you implement these tools into your daily life.”

move!”

“The Greek philosopher Aristotle was quoted as saying, ‘Life is
movement.’ If this is true, then we have been living less capable
lives in recent years. Kelly and Juliet Starrett are not going
gentle into that good night but raging against poor movement by
providing a framework to live a more robust life. Through the
implementation of their daily routine you can reclaim function and
find your best self.”

living. This book has amazing, life-changing insights on how to
stay active and pain-free.”

"We take it for granted that our complex bodies will just keep on
going forever in excellent condition, which is like buying a
Ferrari and leaving it sitting out in the weather all year long,
for years on end, and expecting it to just continue to work
perfectly. This book needs to be the curriculum for any human who
moves and desires to move well. Read it. Your body will thank
you."
—Ben Greenfield, author, coach, and speaker
"Eschewing intensive workouts, the Starretts focus on boosting
mobility through simple exercises....Helpful illustrations
demonstrate how to perform the exercises and the low intensity of
the workouts will appeal to those intimidated by more demanding
regimens. Even couch potatoes will be motivated to get
moving.
