Synopsis "Born to Walk: The Surprising Benefits of Slowing Down to Get Healthier, Live Longer, and Not Run Yourself Into the Ground (in English)"
Mark Sisson, former elite endurance athlete, is officially proclaiming an end to the running boom. For the vast majority of enthusiasts, running-- even slow-paced jogging-- is far too physically and hormonally stressful to confer true health benefits. Unless you are an extremely fit natural runner, you are better off slowing down to a walk to enjoy the wide-ranging health benefits without the risks of injury and burnout associated with running, nor the need for heavily cushioned (and heavily harmful!) shoes. Born to Walk celebrates the quintessential human activity of walking as the centerpiece of a healthy, active, energetic, and long life. Those in the running community will benefit greatly from slowing down and building aerobic health without the stress of overtraining. Others can benefit from getting up and moving more in daily life. Walking is the most simple, accessible and safe fitness activity for the masses, and delivers comprehensive metabolic, hormonal and cognitive benefits. Born To Walk will help reshape fitness culture to reject flawed and dated " no pain, no gain" ideals and replace them with the simple objective of moving more in everyday life, one step at a time.
