In this episode of Menopause Rescue, Dr. Polly Watson explores the groundbreaking LIFTMOR Study by Dr. Belinda Beck, which demonstrates how high-intensity resistance training can significantly improve bone mineral density in postmenopausal women - even those already diagnosed with osteoporosis. Dr. Watson breaks down the study’s key findings, safety measures, and practical takeaways, offering listeners an empowering perspective on strength, aging, and reclaiming physical confidence. This episode is ideal for anyone looking to approach midlife with grit and resilience.
