Shine a light

Rannoch - March 18, 2009

Here is a beautifully coherent piece on the state of health & fitness from Frank Forencich of Exhuberant Animal. Frank has been writing about and promoting human play and movement as core aspect of physical and mental development for quite some time.

As a regular visitor to Chris Highcock’s Conditioning Research I picked up on the article there and just had to pass it on.
