Evolutionary Lifestyle Fitness Strategies for All #1 New Release in Physical Education and Stretching Exercise & Fitness
Adaptive Training explores an alternate perspective on health and fitness focusing on how we are a product of the environment. So change your surroundings to maximize your health and fitness beyond the gym.
Explore your amazingly adaptable body. Tight hip flexors, rounded shoulders and a hunched back are all products of our daily lifestyles. We are adaptoids; our bodies are designed to adapt to our surroundings, and understanding this is the key to unlocking perfect performance. Adaptive Training takes you through the fundamentals of understanding adaptive training while providing a detailed physical fitness program to help you build an environment that facilitates a healthy and empowering new lifestyle fitness journey with new lifestyle fitness equipment.
Unlock your true potential. The best way to learn a language is through immersion, and the same is true for developing and maintaining a new lifestyle fitness. A few hours a week training at the gym or elsewhere is great, but what if your environment outside of the gym is also challenging your body? You will see results that are only possible through the innovative fitness method called "Adam" which stands for Adaptive Immersion Training. Change your environment with intent, and your body will adapt with amazing results.
Inside, you'll learn:
How the environment shapes your body to be adaptive
How and why you should divide training throughout the day
The missing fundamentals of human movement and lifestyle fitness equipment
If you liked Built from Broken, The Comfort Crisis, or What Doesn't Kill You, you'll love Adaptive Training.

Chapter
1: Your Amazing, Adaptable Body
This
will be a motivational section that discusses the amazing human body but
specifically its ability to adapt and change.
Chapter
2: How The Things You Do Everyday Shape Your Health and Fitness
This
will demonstrate that your job/hobbies/lifestyle are more instrumental in
shaping your physique than an hour spent in the gym. It will thus discuss
Chapter
3: Train Outdoors!
This post
will explain the HUGE and immediate benefits of moving your training outside.
Simple example: every pull up from a tree branch is different from the last,
engaging the grip differently, altering the heights of the hands, etc. etc.
This
chapter will also discuss the practicalities of such training (how to manage
progressive overload, where to do it, what to do if it rains), plus the risk of
training ONLY in chaotic environments and how to marry the benefits of both
types of training.
Chapter
4: The Missing Fundamentals of Human Movement
Our
modern lifestyles introduce a number of issues and rob us of some basic
abilities: pelvis control, spine mobility, shoulder mobility, core strength, scapula
control, straight-arm strength.
This post will explore the precise missing attributes in the context of the
ATSP hierarchy discussed in the previous book.
Chapter
5: "SuperExercises"
This
chapter will introduce exercises specifically intended to remedy the above
problem. The term "SuperExercise" is inspired by "SuperFood." The idea is that
these exercises either provide multiple benefits in one go, or they address a
missing fundamental.
Chapter
6: Don't Let the Environment Change You: Change the Environment
This
chapter starts with a more in-depth exploration of the idea of the "Adaptation
Facilitation Machine." This is a building designed to challenge the body as we
move through it. It's only theoretical, but a fun thought experiment.
It
will then discuss ways you can make an existing environment more stimulating
and challenging (standing desks as a very obvious example).
It
then concludes that "intent" and "habits" are more important - your
relationship with the environment. It will thus suggest a number of ways to
train incidentally.
Chapter
7: Splitting Your Workouts
This
chapter discusses the benefits of splitting workouts up throughout the day:
this can increase energy and mood, encourage muscle growth, and massively
improve performance. It's also more convenient for a lot of people.
Chapter
8: An Active Brain
This
chapter applies many of the previously discussed concepts to brain training.
Chapter
9: A Program
This
chapter offers a program based on the SuperExercises and splitting workouts
into lots of smaller parts. One of the biggest criticisms of the previous book
was the lack of an actual program - this should address that!
Chapter
10: You Are Information
A little
indulgence! An alternative way to look at the body and its relationship with
the environment.
