S9 E9 - Osteoporosis and Resistance Training

Osteoporosis is a common condition in patients over the age of 50. We look at the evidence there is for using high intensity resistance, strength and impact training to improve bone density and reduce fracture risk in these individuals, and how practically we can incorporate this into our practice and recommendations for long term benefits.
