This week Corinne was speaking with Seth Greiner, physical therapist. The discussion was about the importance of  maintaining physical strength. 

Strength is the foundation of physical function. It underpins our ability to perform everyday tasks, from carrying groceries to getting up from a chair. As we age, we naturally lose strength, which can lead to decreased independence, increased risk of falls and injuries, and a decline in overall quality of life. Even with conditions like Parkinson's, targeted strength training can improve balance, despite muscle-building challenges. Getting stronger, even in later years, can help maintain or regain the ability to do the things we enjoy, improve bone density, enhance balance (in many cases), and increase resilience against age-related physical decline.
