About this listen

We all love to nerd out on the advances in the science of exercise but here's a practice that never required wearable technology: Early human movement. Like, leaping from a predator. Or, crouching as a hunter. Here is a bonus thought: By using our bodies the way they were originally intended - for mobility, balance and play – it could be a lot easier to, say, jump out of an airplane in your 80s.

His body injured after a decade in Canadian pro-football, Andre and his yoga-practising gymnast wife Catalina talk mobility benefits at every life age. Meanwhile 10,000 feet above ground, Mary and Lina conquered those mobility issues by jumping out of an airplane, to teach their grandkids a thing or two about growing old.

GUESTS: Former CFL star Andre Talbot and Catalina Moraga, the husband-and-wife owners of Spirit Loft Movement Centre in Toronto. And 80-something BFFs Mary Kelcey and Lina Zatzman, who enjoy a high-altitude adrenaline hit.
