We want to be safe when exercising. That's very, very important. Nobody wants a fracture. But because of that, we've taken it too far. And we need an opportunity to improve our bone density through a safe strength training program.

Onero™ is a program that offers exactly this.

In this episode, I interviewed Dr. Claudia Tamas, a physical therapist and director of women's health at Natural Medicine and Rehabilitation in New Jersey.

Dr. Tamas has implemented the Onero™ program at her clinic - a strength training method developed in Australia based on over a decade of research showing its benefits for bone health.

I was fascinated to learn how Claudia safely trains her patients using this high-intensity progressive resistance approach. She sees fantastic results like increased bone density scores and stories of improved strength from her participants.

We also heard from Pat, a physical therapist who graduated from the Onero™ program. She shared how she gained new strength levels even with her fitness background. I can't wait to start the program myself in January!

I hope you find this conversation as informative and inspiring as I did. See you at the next episode!
