Movement Logic: Strong Opinions, Loosely Held

97: Stronger Than Ever - BDC Alums Share Their Stories


Listen Later

Welcome to Episode 97 of the Movement Logic Podcast! In this special episode, Laurel and Sarah talk to four women who recently completed the Bone Density Course: Lift for Longevity about their experiences. Whether it’s building strength and stability for hiking and biking, reclaiming confidence in their bodies, or surprising themselves with what they can lift, each woman brings a unique and inspiring story. In this episode, you’ll hear from:

  • Leslie Nelson, a former professional dancer and movement educator from the Berkshires of Massachusetts, who rediscovered strength, resilience, and even more mobility through lifting.
  • Julie Wright, a lifelong ballet dancer and psychotherapist based in New York City, who realized that ballet and walking weren’t enough to maintain her bone health — and found empowerment through barbell training.
  • Barb Elias, a retired public servant and yoga teacher from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, who worked with her natural hypermobility to build real-world strength that supports her hiking, biking, and day-to-day confidence.
  • Susan Saylor, a former civil rights attorney turned yoga teacher in San Francisco, who overcame her hesitations about lifting and built a new relationship with strength training that shows up both on and off the mat.

If you’ve ever wondered if you’re too old, too inexperienced, or too "not a gym person" to lift heavy and get stronger, these conversations will change your mind.

Important: The cart for Bone Density Course: Lift for Longevity closes Saturday, May 10th — so don’t wait!  SIGN UP HERE! We won't run this course for another 6 months!
