Walking for Tesla

A fitness app and a Tesla walk into a bar…

How did these two end up together?

Nikola Tesla, one of the world’s greatest minds, continued to dream up new inventions well into his eighties. Many of his inventions helped turn the lights on around the world. But how did he manage to keep his lights on?

Curiously enough, he did it through another source of power: by walking.

“It is no secret, but common sense. I look upon the human body as a machine, and I treat it with the respect which a machine deserves.” –Tesla Universe

Walking was the way he showed his body that respect. He claimed to have the “agility of a baby” that he gained through walking and — surprisingly — bath exercises.

His obsession was walking more than 10 miles each day. This wasn’t just his daily habit; it was his way to think, and it’s what allowed him to dream up thousands of inventions.

“While walking with a friend at sunset, reciting poetry by Goethe, a spasm of revelation struck Tesla. He stood transfixed, explaining how an AC motor would work.” –The Franklin Institute
