As we rebrand this podcast to #GERIonICE, we (the GEROS team) wanted to share what GEROS means to us & our hopes for this amazing community! If you didn't listen to Monday's episode, you should go back & do that. In summary, here are the changes that are happening:  Say "Goodbye" to the GEROS Recap and "Hello" to the MMOA Digest - Bi-weekly email of relevant research, helpful podcasts, & insightful info. Click here to get the MMOA Digest. GEROS Facebook Group will remain the same...a strong force for good in geriatrics. GEROS Podcast will become the #GERIonICE Podcast where we will publish our weekly segment from the #PTonICE Daily Show. GEROS' Social Media accounts will shift to my personal/professional accounts where I will share relevant Geri info with an occasional mountain biking &/or family post ;)

The Power Of Community

We cannot just forget a group of muscles in our body. This is especially true if we are working with people with hip or low back pain.  Those who are more sedentary, more frail, strain more with daily tasks are at higher rates of pelvic issues.  That means that you, as fitness forward clinicians, are already doing pelvic WELL. We just need to fill in a couple of gaps. 

Fitness Forward Geriatric Clinicians do PELVIC Well!
