YEARS OF INNOVATION
The innovators behind The Ready State and the movement bible Becoming a Supple Leopard present 10 practices proven to enhance mobility, make you feel energetic and alive, and, like a good 401(K), prepare your body for whatever comes its way in the future.
After decades spent working with pro-athletes, Olympians, and Navy Seals, mobility pioneers Kelly and Juliet Starrett began thinking about the physical well-being of the rest of us. What makes a durable human? How do we continue to feel great and function well as we age? And how do we counteract the effects of technology-dependence, sedentary living, and other modern ways of life on our body’s natural need for activity? Our bodies, after all, were built to move.
WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING
“Built to Move is the definitive guide for building an all-around healthy and high-performing body and mind. What makes Built to Move so valuable is not just the extensive real-world experience that went into formulating the protocols it describes, or the rigorous peer-reviewed scientific studies those protocols are based on, but its elegant simplicity. Built to Move makes exactly clear what we all need to do, and when, and how, so that anyone can reach their health goals, regardless of current fitness, income level, or life demands. Built to Move should be (self) assigned reading for anyone looking to enhance their mental or physical health and performance.”
– Andrew Huberman, Professor of Neuroscience, Stanford University
& Host of The Huberman Lab Podcast
“Built to Move is a must-read for anyone with a body—that is to say, you. The Starretts have written a sweeping yet easy-to-understand and practical guide for anyone who wants to live healthier in the 21st century, from professional athletes to those well beyond retirement age. The book’s strength lies in how it blends the authors’ decades of cutting-edge practice with breaking science to help us live longer and better. Critically, Built to Move inspires action. It changed how I live my life, and I’m better for it. It’ll do the same for you.”
– Michael Easter, author of The Comfort Crisis
“The Starretts…are the epitome of what a Spartan is…I LOVE that they are so focused on mobility. Maintain mobility and you’ll be able to do anything….Built to Move is an amazing book…and it will keep Spartans competing in Spartans and Mudders competing in Tough Mudders for the rest of their lives.”
– Joe De Sena, Founder + CEO, Spartan
“Our bodies are incredible machines. They have the ability to adapt and heal from injury and stress. However, that also means it can adapt in non-beneficial ways to our modern lives. Hunched shoulders from texting, rounded back and shortened hip flexors from sitting all day, strained eyes from staring at screens, and improper regulation of hormones are all adaptations that can come from our current lives. BUILT TO MOVE should be the standard movement practice we all start living by and teaching future generations.”
– Matt Vincent, Highland Games World Champion
“Whether you are a professional athlete, a serious weekend warrior, or, like most people, just trying to fit it in, Juliet and Kelly are there every step of the way. The Starretts have created an accessible path for helping us all live a more fulfilled and pain-free life. There is a time and a place for getting obsessed with how much weight one can lift or have fast someone is, but we all need the basics to build our foundations upon true principles spelled out in BUILT TO MOVE….I will personally be using BUILT TO MOVE as a reference for years to come.”
– Gabrielle Reece, professional athlete, podcast host, and author of My Foot is Too Big for the Glass Slipper
“All of us, athletes and everyone else, need strategies for daily living. This book has amazing, life-changing insights on how to stay active and pain-free.”
– Georges St. Pierre, 2 Division UFC Champion, Actor, Legend
“We take it for granted that our complex bodies will just keep on going forever in excellent condition, which is like buying a Ferrari and leaving it sitting out in the weather all year long, for years on end, and expecting it to just continue to work perfectly. Fact is, in the same way, we humans must learn to communicate, learn to read, learn to play music, learn to think, or learn to cook, we must also learn to move. It’s time we had an actual blueprint for that, and this is exactly what the Starrett’s have created in Built To Move. This book needs to be the curriculum for any human who moves and desires to move well. Read it. Your body will thank you.”
– Ben Greenfield – author, coach, and speaker at BenGreenfieldLife.com
“Every time my body asks, “What did you do to me?” I go to the Starrett’s for answers. They’ve opened my eyes to simple and astonishingly effective approaches to back pain, hamstring pulls, and sore Achilles tendons. Now they’re offering my personal dream come true — a way to get ahead of the injuries before they happen.”
– Christopher McDougall, bestselling author of Born to Run
“Built to Move is a game-changer. Most fitness books stop at the proverbial gym door; the Starrett’s crash through that door and show that the most important work for better health happens outside the gym, and it’s available to literally everyone.”
– David Epstein, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World
“Through practices that are engaging, introspective, and fun— yes fun! … Built To Move is the roadmap we have been waiting for that will revive what has always been your most valuable birthright: to move your body with confidence, pride, and play.”
– Jen Widerstrom, Celebrity Trainer, CEO, Author, Speaker

I’ve watched for years how Kelly and Juliet delivered their knowledge of movement, mobility, and injury reduction for the Army’s Rangers.

– Mike Ferriter – Lieutenant General (Retired), US Army Ranger, President & CEO, National Veterans Memorial and Museum
“Kelly and Juliet have long been at the forefront of translating complex health and fitness concepts into practical, accessible tools that can help us move better. As a professional athlete, I am always looking for an edge and a way to work with my physiology to achieve more on the bike, and have found that simple movements repeated consistently are often the key both to long term gains and maintaining overall health. Kelly and Juliet are masters in this domain and their latest book Built to Move distills their vast knowledge into widely applicable daily habits and tools that won’t just help you move better, but live better as a result.”

Through the implementation of their daily routine you can reclaim function and find your best self.”
