Tutu wants to protect her bones so if she falls, she can get right back up! Maui Physical Therapist Christie Newsom joins us to revolutionize our understanding of bone health through strength training. Inspired by renowned researcher Dr. Belinda Beck, Christie shares her study of the Onero system and why it is successful in managing osteoporosis. We uncover how engaging large muscle groups—like glutes and hips—transform not just rehabilitation but also daily life, especially for those with sedentary lifestyles. Christie tells us about her personal experiences and innovative practices that promise to redefine how we care for our bones as we age.
Whether you're looking to improve bone density or maintain mobility, it's never too late to embark on this empowering journey. Christie advocates lifting heavier weights and breaking away from traditional low-impact exercises. We discuss how personalized assessments ensure safety and effectiveness in these programs, encouraging our listeners to explore community resources and new methods to enhance their overall health.
