Are you a movement professional looking to add a holistic method to your training regimen? Primal Movement for Modern Living is the answer to undoing the deleterious effects of living a sedentary lifestyle.

Using his background in functional movement and clinical anatomy, Tyler has selected his top 14 movements that are paramount in sustaining a healthy balance between strength, flexibility, and preventing injury.14 Fundamental Primal Movements are included such as breathing, jaw movement, crawling, squatting, and barefoot training all of which can be easily implemented on a daily basis.
