He's also a Licensed Massage Therapist with over 8 years of experience.  After battling severe depression and anxiety for over two years in his early 20's, he developed a passion for helping people discover, not only how to move freely and sustainably, but how to live and behave in a way that is consistent with our evolutionary biology and in a symbiosis with the natural world. 

Listen to this episode of The MOVEMENT Movement with Ryan Walker about four fitness myths to leave behind.

Here are some of the beneficial topics covered on this week’s show:

- How the myth of isolation suggests that muscles work independently when muscles are really interconnected.

- Why functional movement, not muscle growth, should be the primary focus for exercise.

- How many gym exercises do not enhance natural movement patterns.

- Why it’s important to consider psychological, emotional, and other wellness components for your overall well-being and movement.

- How people should focus on correct posture and alignment through myofascial release, core integration, and lumbo-pelvic exercises.
