The delivery of my fifth child was intense.The nurse said I lost two pints of blood. When the doctor said "how much?" both my husband and I heard the surprise in her voice. She called the surgical team in early. Turns out a hair-sized piece of placenta was still in my uterus causing the blood loss.

After we were in the clear, my husband and I reflected on how similar conditions would have killed a woman in child birth a hundred years ago.

Similarly, a lot has changed as far as exercise in 100 years. Running wasn’t a sport; if you were running along the side of the road, you were likely being chased. Exercise was a part of daily life.

How do you incorporate movement into your daily life? Park far from the entrance? Take the dog for a walk? Squat to pick up things you drop?
