The pre-agricultural,  pre-domestication man received all three types of 
activity all the time, every day! He had to walk long distances, climb 
many trees to pick nuts or fruits, and if very lucky to injure an animal 
with his weapon, then run after the animal until the latter collapsed. 
Running was not part of everyday life, but would happen sometimes. He 
didn't just walk all day.

This was so for a very long time, then the cold got very intense (about 
20 thousand years back) and just hunting and gathering would not provide 
enough food anymore, so human was forced to get quite creative and try 
every imaginable way of survival using what was at his disposal in those 
years. This is how domestication was discovered and used towards keeping 
animals in large numbers instead of going hunting them.

Did the three main types of physical activity, after domestication 
began, cease to exist? Certainly not. To get a good glimpse inside the 
life of that man, I think your best bet is to watch the lifestyle of the 
last of them who still exist in Iran (and nowhere else).

In 1925 Cooper (guy who later created the King Kong movie) made a 
documentary about those people. It is a jewel to see, and is the only 
remaining clue on how man after domestication lived for a few thousand 
years until weather got warmer and the agricultural period ensued.

The name of that movie is "Grass", and I think it is free to see. Just 
make sure you see the complete version of it, not the edited and 
shortened forms.

After seeing that documentary, you'll realize what man had to go through 
to make a living in the domestication period :) The activities involved, 
even with the use of animals to also ride on, were huge. In fact, much 
more than the hunting/gathering period required. That man, certainly 
received every form of exercise, all three types of Pilates and a good 
amount of exertions each day.

It was the agriculture that at last stopped the man's day to day life 
(as far as physical activity is concerned) from being a match to the way 
his body was put together. Not only that, agriculture also changed man's 
diet, and the frequency of eating itself, to something that didn't match 
his body and metabolism well. But these last two effects aren't the 
subject of this blog. In this blog, I'm only talking about the physical 
activity aspect of the discussion.

To make one's physical activity, types and levels both, match the human 
body's features that are developed to meet them, all three types of 
Pilates must be done, plus hours of walking. Every day without 
exception. Only then, at least as far as activity is concerned, we'll be 
doing just what our body is built for.

What we eat, and with what frequency, is another task to get underway. 
I've discussed it many times. Your best bet is to read Jason Fung's "The 
Diabetes Code" to understand exactly why, and how, you should do that.

We are metabolism machines. Part of it is what goes inside us in what 
quantities and with what frequencies, and the other part is how best to 
metabolize and utilize what goes in. When both styles of life as 
mentioned above gets underway, you'd be living like how human should.
