You’ve heard me rave about the short-term and long-term benefits of strength training. And maybe I’ve convinced you that this is the direction to go with your fitness. But what do you do if the desire to strength train runs into underlying bone health issues?

Listener Lex has this very question: “I am a 50-year-old woman who has never strength trained - so I'd be starting from scratch. And I've considered using your program, but you know what stops me? I have osteopenia. And I don't know if I would need to modify the program or how I would go about in a way to address the osteopenia. I don't want to hurt myself any further - I want to get on a fast track to improving it. What are your thoughts?”

Lex, I promise you’re not the only one with this concern!

In this quick episode, I talk about Osteoporosis and Osteopenia and the differences between them, and then I give you advice on the things you should be doing, and the things to avoid to help not only address, but improve your Osteopenia.

💥Taking listener questions!!! Do you have a question about your self-care that you need help with? Just head to www.vigeofit.com/ask to submit your question, and I’ll answer it for you on an upcoming Friday episode.
