What is Human Powered Movement?

Great question. Here's the reality plain and simple. Our lives have become too sedentary.

Humans are supposed to be active participants in the world around us but our present-day conveniences have drastically reduced human activity from our lives. Human Powered Movement's goal is to fight back. Our mission is facilitate greater human powered experiences in all of us. 

​I'm a gratefully exhausted father of 2 young knuckleheads, and each time we go to the park or play in the stream behind the house, it reminds me of the wholesome benefits that are ripe for the picking through unencumbered human movement in our natural environments. Excitement, wonder, a rush of endorphins, accomplishment … the list goes on.
Human Powered Movement was established to help you recapture those feelings. ​Even without a deep dive into the science, the broad reaching benefits of these interactions are clear … physical, mental, spiritual, interpersonal, environmental, and more. The best part? Each of us can capture those feelings in our own way, at our own intensity level and on our own time. Some people need a little extra encouragement on their journey. We aim to be that encouragement.
We create and manage free ongoing CHALLENGES that provide accountability (and some flashy incentives thanks to our partners) for our participants. We source, create, and promote inspirational human powered stories and accomplishments on our JOURNAL platforms to keep people engaged and motivated. We lead by example, live this lifestyle ourselves, and joyfully encourage others along the way.

The point is, you don’t have to be a high-level athlete, you don’t even need to consider yourself an “athlete” at all. The only thing you have to do is find your own way to move. Not sure if you are able run a marathon? I bet you can (check out the Teammate Marathon challenge). Think climbing one of the highest mountains in the world is a pipe dream? I bet you can (check out the Denali Summit Challenge).
​
We are enablers that encourage the essential act of #HumanPoweredMovement.

Join us. Let's create some pretty dang cool human powered experiences together.
