Why Humans Evolved to Walk with Weight

This episode explores how human evolution is deeply connected to endurance walking and carrying loads over long distances. It explains how our musculoskeletal system—bones, muscles, and posture—adapted to support sustained movement and energy efficiency rather than short bursts of power alone. The key insight is that human bodies are built for load-bearing endurance. Understanding this evolutionary design helps explain modern health, posture issues, and the importance of functional movement and strength training.
