A guide to using gravity effectively for better health, increased energy, and improved aging.

Moving in the course of living keeps your body tuned and oiled ready to respond when you need it. Simple everyday moving is the foundation of health. It's what keeps you alive and healthy.

Studies show that too much sitting is killing you even if you exercise. Why isn't exercise enough? What is missing? Uninterrupted sitting means that you have taken away the frequent stimulus you need every so often. The stimulus is provided by the change in posture, your body working up in the opposite direction to the downward pull of the force of gravity. How often? As often as you can spread it out throughout the day. What hours of sitting take away are the crucial interruptions that challenging gravity by standing up often provide? Even those who exercise three to five times a week but don't move the rest of the time, are at risk and can benefit from this kind of moving.

Smart Move a Guide emphasizes the importance of purposeful, efficient movements that can be done in the course of everyday activities. By making small adjustments and prioritizing movement, readers can enhance their health and prevent the debilitating effects of aging and inactivity.
