    "Running is a bad idea for most runners." Enjoy a compelling presentation on the hazards of steady state endurance running and the wide-ranging benefits of a walking-oriented lifestyle.

  • Product Details

    Mark Sisson's Born To Walk challenges the flawed notions that have driven the running boom and describes how walking extensively every day is a fundamental driver of human health.

    Born To Walk shatters the flawed “struggle and suffer” ethos of the fitness industry with a comprehensive plan to slow down and discover the secret to weight loss, aerobic fitness, and longevity that is a walking-oriented lifestyle.

    Born To Walk Revelations:

    * Your optimal "fat burning" pace is probably a walk, not a run
    * Running prompts the genetic signaling for fat storage and muscle loss
    * Walking boosts mood, energy, aerobic function, and fat metabolism
    * Running shoes cause injuries; walking barefoot or in minimalist shoes prevents injuries

    Born to Walk will help you re-calibrate your approach to endurance exercise to avoid the drawbacks of chronic cardio, build an aerobic base the right way, reawaken lost foot functionality by transitioning to a more barefoot-inspired lifestyle, and develop broad-based functional fitness for longevity. "The most important recalibration of the fitness industry in decades."

  • How to put on Peluvas

  • Specs & Materials

Women's Strand Sport Mesh Peluva

Zero-Drop Sole

Zero degree heel-to-toe drop mimics natural, barefoot elevation of the foot leading to a healthy stride, and encourages midfoot or forefoot striking instead of heel striking believed to reduces joint impact.

5-Toe Splay

Separate toe slots dedicated to each toe provide an even wider toe box and more structured yet natural alignment than traditional barefoot shoes and toe spacers. Customers love the increased sensory perception.

Strengthen All-Day

Peluvas prompt research-proven foot strengthening effects all day long by giving back more mobility and flexibility to feet than rigid and even over-cushioned soles.

Men's Apollo Peluva

Smart Comfort

9mm of our Super Critical EVA Foam provides just enough cushion for 'any-wear' support on hard manmade surfaces or rugged terrains without sacrificing ground-feel or comfort.

Innovative Design

5-toe slot design meets classic, timeless style that looks great across athleisure and casual wear.

    Walking Is In The Fiber Of My Being

    Just getting started on the book and I already love it! Mark is spot on and I can hardly wait to finish it. I’ve been an avid walker for over 35 years. Daily walks with friends, family and my dogs. I’ve done road races, relays, endurance events and racewalking. My daily walks makes my day, it helps clear my mind, supports inspiration, and lets me experience and enjoy nature and weather. Walking has been instrumental in rebuilding my middle aged wellness. I’m grateful to have this book as a resource. It a must read for wellness enthusiasts!

    Easy to read, concise narratives

    I liked this book so much I purchased a pair of Peluva's. I will start walking a lot here in the Kansas City area once to snow and ice melts enough to make it safe to walk about! Thanks
