We are deeply saddened by the passing of our author, Steve Silberman. An acclaimed science journalist, fierce advocate for the autism community, and author of the award-winning and best-selling book "NeuroTribes: The Legacy of Autism and the Future of Neurodiversity," Steve was a transformative voice in broadening public understanding and fostering a more inclusive society.

We are honored to have worked with Steve on his groundbreaking book to champion a world where neurodiversity is celebrated and the unique perspectives and contributions of autistic individuals are respected and valued. Our thoughts are with Steve’s family and loved ones.

Prodded by Oliver Sacks, he wrote a humane, award-winning book about the condition. A music maven, he also wrote liner notes for the Grateful Dead and his friend David Crosby.

When you sit in a chair, lift a package off the floor or climb a flight of stairs, your body is doing some form of squatting, hinging or lunging. But just because you perform these movements every day doesn’t mean you’re doing them correctly. Whether you round your back while lifting or overload your knees when you stand up, repeatedly moving with poor form can lead to pain and injury.

According to Alyssa Ages, author of , training these six fundamental movements can help you accomplish daily tasks more easily and without pain as you age.

Learn more on The New York Times.

Practicing these movements can make everyday tasks — like carrying groceries and walking up stairs — easier.
