Hi Reader, I am dropping in on a Monday. You may not know this, but I have a YouTube channel where I share short exercise tutorials. I got a little unmotivated for a stretch in 2025, but in December I found my rhythm again and added a few new videos. These are short, osteoporosis-friendly exercises you can do when you are short on time, or if you need some variety in the routine you already have. Here are three I added in December: Exercise Library: March with Lateral Arm Lift. Challenge your balance, work your core. Exercise Library: Lunge to Standing Knee Lift - and modifications. Build leg strength and stability, with options to meet you where you are. Exercise Library: Forearm Plank with Knee Taps, strengthen your core and shoulders If you try one, feel free to reply to this email and let me know how it went. I love hearing from you. Keep moving, consistency is key, Andrea Trombley DPT My next Strong Women, Strong Bones Jumpstart will run at the end of March. If you’d like to be notified as soon as dates are announced, email me to add you to the interest list. Bone loss doesn't mean sit still and miss out on the fun stuff. |

Here's the quick science Most of you already know that building and maintaining bone requires key nutrients: • calcium • protein • vitamin K Jarlsberg is a naturally fermented cheese that...
Reader, I’m heading out to get in some mileage on the beach here in South Carolina today as I prepare for the Bataan Memorial Death March in a few weeks. I’m testing what socks, sneakers, shorts, and hats work best in sand and wind — but mostly, I’m just getting my body ready for the distance. No time goals, just steady miles. When I’m out walking or jogging, I often think about the simplest ways to share helpful exercises with you. Yesterday, I kept coming back to upper-body strength. Have...
