The Laws of Motion

A professional posture therapist shares
how to sit, stand up straight, and walk the right way!

Sometimes, you wake up tired and think, “Hey, my body doesn’t feel like it’s mine.” And sometimes, you just feel like your body is breaking down. Even if we don’t push ourselves or get hurt, our bodies are slowly collapsing because of our bad habits. Crossing your legs, doing turtle neck, or leaning on one hip - if these little habits are causing you uncomfortable pain, The Laws of Motion is for you. The author, who runs the YouTube channel “Work Out With Dave” and has been a posture therapist for over 10 years, introduces “how to use your body.”
While it is important to work out every day, it is even more important to restore balance in our bodies and fix any bad habits. And, as parts of our body are connected organically, it is necessary to have a proper knowledge and understanding of our body’s nature, rather than trying to fix a particular area. The book, The Laws of Motion, visually explains body shapes, muscle movements, and exercises through more than 100 illustrations. We hope the book will encourage you to make small changes in your daily routine to bring your body back into balance, and to use that restored balance to get fit and healthy. By the time you are done reading and following the exercises, you will be an expert in your own body!
