Exercise Five is Foot Travel

Exercise Five is Foot Travel

With so many exercises to choose from, it was difficult to limit this list to just five.  I tried to include categories of exercises, exercises that have a lot of options for making them harder or easier depending on fitness level and training age.  It doesn’t matter how old you are though.  These exercise categories apply to your program because of how transferable they are to life outside the gym.

I hope you find value in this list.  An exercise or two might just make it into your program.  The exercises I talk about in this series aren’t in any particular order.  There is space for all of them in your programming and they can pretty much fit anywhere.  

It is important to properly mobilize the body and activate the muscles you’re going to use prior to your workout to help prevent injury and get the most out of your time in the gym.  All of the exercises can be incorporated into your warm-up.  It just depends on how you treat the setup and execution.  Error on the side of simple early in your workout program and progress complexity as you go.  But, complete complex movements in individual workouts as soon as possible after the warm-up.  Most goals would have you challenge the nervous system while it’s fresh.

Possibly the most primal of all these exercises is foot travel.  Foot travel here refers to walking, jogging, running and sprinting.

The gait is something that can be trained and deliberate practice has been proven to be both meditative and productive.  The brain likes it when we move our bodies and we can walk for a very long time consecutively, giving the brain ample opportunity to work through complex problems in real time.

I often gain great clarity after a long foot travel session.
