I’ve long been a fan of sprinting, it’s one of the Primal Blueprint Laws for a reason. Running sprints will always be the gold standard in my book, but as I’ve gotten older, the wear and tear on my joints (especially my hips) has pushed me to find alternatives. Bike sprints, ellipticals, VersaClimbers, assault bikes—they all work. A few years ago, though, I started using rope pulls as my go-to sprint alternative, and it’s an absolute ass-kicker. It’s mostly upper body, but your legs can join the

Humans weren’t built for chairs, screens, and stillness. We were built to walk, carry, squat, climb, sprint, and play—every single day. Movement isn’t “exercise.” It’s a biological requirement.

My single favorite full-body exercise is the deadlift. It engages the feet, ankles, posterior chain, quads, hip flexors, and abs, plus it's great for grip strength. I prefer the trap bar (a.k.a. hex bar) because it allows me to get my body into the optimal position, but a straight bar also works. Don't be tempted to load up the bar right away. Aim for quality over quantity. Beginners, don't be intimidated. Start with light weight—even an empty bar—and focus on form first. This is a movement you
