Play means moving in a way that is fun, exploratory, variable, and personally meaningful. The most capable movers &#8211; kids, animals, and athletes &#8211; develop skill and fitness through play, not \u201cworking out.\u201d But the mainstream approach to sport training and physical therapy is all work no play. It is focused on movements that are boring, repetitive, planned, stressful, and intrinsically meaningless. This stems from viewing the body as a machine to be \u201cfixed,\u201d instead of an organic system that can evolve, grow, and learn. The arguments in this book are not based in romantic feel-good reasoning, but hard evidence drawn from diverse fields of study, including the sciences of play, complex systems, pain, motor control, exercise physiology, and psychology. They show that the best pathway to movement health is found not by tracking data or following algorithms, but through curious exploration of the physical world. If you want to take control of your movement health in a way that is fun, meaningful, and empowering, and learn some fascinating science on the way, this book is for you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Product Description Playing with Movement is about solving \u201cmovement problems,\u201d such as how to complete your first marathon, recover from back pain, put on more muscle, or improve agility on the soccer field.
