Summary

This episode is brought to you by Birch Living, One Skin, and Aqua Tru. When it comes to longevity, many of us envision a future where we can keep doing what we love—whether it’s gardening, hiking, skiing, or playing with grandchildren. Taking steps now to maintain our mobility is key to ensuring a long, active, and joy-filled life. Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, Dhru sits down with Juliet and Kelly Starrett to discuss their no-frills approach to promoting durability and mobility as we age. Drawing from decades in the wellness industry and insights from their new book, Built to Move, they share impactful diet, lifestyle, and movement strategies to help you build strength and move freely into your 60s, 70s, 80s, and beyond. They dive into at-home mobility tests like the sit-and-rise test, the power of walking, and the importance of dietary fiber, protein, sleep, and resilience. Juliet and Kelly also highlight how simple dietary changes lay the foundation for true progress and sustainable change, helping your body bounce back from injuries and setbacks as you age. Juliet Starrett is an entrepreneur, attorney, author, podcaster, and professional whitewater paddler with three world championships and five national titles. Dr. Kelly Starrett consults with pro athletes, elite military forces, and corporations on health and performance and is the author of Becoming a Supple Leopard and Ready to Run.

Well, on today's episode, we have a powerful rerun of one of our top podcasts that still so many of you have not heard.

0:15.1

It's with Dr. Kelly Starrett and Juliette.

0:18.7

And they're here to talk to us about some of the things that are

the basics of longevity that many people don't pay attention to, including how a simple
