Bodyweight, calisthenics and walking sure.

But most lifting methodologies strain the body in unnatural ways. Things like bars force the wrists at angles and weights that lead to injuries.

Gym rings are better, for instance, as they conform to the shape of the hand and can twist in line with the body.

In nature, the hunting, tracking, shelter building and climbing activities our bodies are designed to do, are entirely different from gym/weightlifting culture.

Whole body movement vs isolated lifting.

Even cross fit is unhealthy since we would only do these activities in the amount and way, absolutely necessary to survive.

Obsessive and intense daily routines lead to accumulating heart strain and risk of overall damage.

Our forebares got enourmous amounts of rest, even during active hunts. Almost sedentary. Look at the bodies photographed by Weston A. Price. They were not going for jogs or hitting the mat. They had lean, muscular and proportional musculature, a sedentary communal routine, alongside hunting for their primal diet.

This shift in how we think about exercise and the short sighted "studies" that support it, is as important as moving away from grains and seed oils, and the studies that at one time supported them.

Hypertrophy is just another word for "cell damage". Damage accumulates. Damage is bad.
