Väčšina ľudí verí, že hodinka cvičenia denne stačí na to, aby si udržali zdravie. Iste, cvičiť je vždy lepšie ako necvičiť vôbec, ale cvičenie nie je to isté ako prirodzený POHYB. Správny pohyb ovplyvňuje telo na bunkovej úrovni, preto dôležitejšie ako hodinu cvičiť, je rovnomerne sa počas dňa hýbať a hlavne - hýbať sa správnym spôsobom. Potrebujeme odhaliť svoje pohybové slabiny - nesprávne držanie tela či spôsob chôdze, oslabenie určitých telesných partií a naopak prílišné využívanie iných častí. Potrebujeme sa zbaviť nesprávnych návykov, ktoré sme nadobudli tým, že sme počúvali rady “odborníkov”, ako napríklad “vtiahni brucho a vypni hruď” alebo to, že Kegelove cviky sú najlepšie na posilnenie panvového dna. Kniha Rozhýb svoju DNA je knihou o správnom pohybe. Dozviete sa v nej, ako cvičiť a hýbať sa tak, aby ste aktívne zmenili svoj neuspokojivý zdravotný stav, získali správne držanie tela a odstránili mnohé zdravotné problémy.
