Beyond the Cave Podcast – Fitness in Modern Life

Episode 33 Functional Strength for Parents: A Caveman's Guide

10 Oct 2025

Description

Modern fitness often builds gym-specific strength, not life-specific strength. It prepares you for predictable lifts on stable surfaces, not for hoisting a squirming child, carrying a car seat at an awkward angle, or lunging to catch a falling cup. Our ancestors, however, were the original functional athletes. Their "job" was survival, and it required a type of raw, integrated strength that is perfectly suited for the beautiful chaos of parenthood.
