Ep. 100: Movement, Exploration, and Why "More Steps" Misses the Point — with Turner Osler


Listen Later

Episode 100 of Resilience Radio continues a core theme of the show: rethinking health, movement, and ergonomics beyond simplistic metrics.

In this conversation, Irvin Eisenberg sits down with Turner Osler, founder of QOR360, to explore why counting steps, standing more, or "fixing posture" often misses the deeper issue. They discuss movement as exploration, variability as nourishment for the nervous system, and why ergonomics should support curiosity rather than control.

Key topics include:

  • Why "more steps" isn't the same as better movement

  • The limits of standing desks and static posture fixes

  • Movement as exploration, not correction

  • Variability, nervous system safety, and adaptability

  • How active sitting changes the relationship between work and movement

This episode is for clinicians, desk workers, athletes, and anyone interested in a more nuanced, humane approach to ergonomics and health.
