Today we fix core engagement (use breathing-led bracing, not pelvic tucks), and we reframe the “best stretch for sciatica”: relief tools help short-term, but lasting change comes from technique → repeatability → then load on squat/hinge patterns. We also cover plateau-busting (micro-progress with smaller jumps & last-set tests), DOMS vs flare-ups, kit choices (DBs/KBs → barbell), where to read free education, osteoporosis safety, daily frequency when pain has shifted from sharp to dull, IDD expectations, knees-over-toes with BIS, incomplete cauda equina context, hip work for spondy, post-microdiscectomy principles, and even how to safely push a stuck door (brace first, then press).Start here → https://backinshapeprogram.com/start/Highlights:

Osteoporosis affects 10 million Americans, and research shows resistance training effectively builds bone density by creating mechanical stress that signals bone-building cells to strengthen skeletal structure Weightlifting (80% to 85% of your 1 rep max) performed two to three times weekly produces the greatest bone density gains, while walking and swimming provide insufficient force for bone strengthening Essential exercises include squats, deadlifts, incline pushups, hip rotations, and chair squats, progressing gradually in intensity while maintaining proper form to minimize injury risk Blood flow restriction (BFR) training, also known as KAATSU in Japan, enhances bone formation markers even at low intensities, allowing effective muscle and bone strengthening without heavy weights or pain Consistency matters most. Research shows that training for one year or more significantly improves bone mineral density, cortical thickness, and overall bone geometry across all ages and genders

When Mary was diagnosed with osteoporosis, fear and confusion took over. Doctors told her the only option was medication — but deep down, she knew there had to be another way.In this inspiring episode of the Stronger Bones Lifestyle Podcast, Debi Robinson sits down with Mary, one of her Healthy Gut, Healthy Bones graduates, to share her journey of rebuilding bone health naturally from the inside out.Discover how Mary uncovered the root causes of her bone loss; gut inflammation, poor digestion, and nutrient absorption—and how healing her gut transformed her energy, confidence, and strength.If you've been wondering whether natural bone health recovery is possible, this conversation will give you hope, direction, and proof that your body can heal.Timestamps00:00 – Introduction: Mary's journey to stronger bones02:15 – The emotional impact of an osteoporosis diagnosis06:30 – How gut health influences bone strength12:20 – Identifying inflammation and nutrient absorption issues18:00 – Healing from the inside out through lifestyle changes24:45 – Mary's results and renewed confidence28:10 – Debi's advice for anyone feeling stuck or afraid32:00 – The Healthy Gut, Healthy Bones approach35:00 – Closing thoughts and resourcesWhat You'll LearnThe connection between gut health and bone healthHow inflammation weakens bones—and what to do about itWhy digestion and nutrient absorption are key to bone strengthPractical lifestyle shifts for stronger bones naturallyHow mindset and body awareness influence healingResources Mentioned

Egg yolk proteins influence bone health by reducing bone breakdown and encouraging new bone growth, offering natural support against osteoporosis Research shows that certain egg yolk compounds shut down harmful “switches” in bone-destroying cells, helping prevent fractures and bone fragility The smallest protein fragments in eggs were found to be the most powerful, easily entering cells to trigger bone-building activity One egg yolk compound not only protected bones but also repaired fractures and improved strength in models of age-related bone loss and brittle-bone disease Choosing pasture-raised, low-linoleic acid eggs and combining them with collagen-rich foods and key nutrients like vitamin D, magnesium, and vitamin K2 helps build stronger bones and maintain independence as you age

Send us a textYour bones are silently changing beneath the surface, and for women entering menopause, that change accelerates at an alarming rate. Did you know you could lose up to 30% of your bone mass in the first 5-7 years after menopause? This silent thief works without symptoms until a fracture occurs, often when it's too late for prevention.In this episode, Speaking of Women's Health Podcast Host Dr. Holly Thacker reads Chapter 12 of her book, "The Cleveland Clinic Guide to Menopause," and offers additional insights and tips you won't find in the book.This isn't just about preventing fractures – it's about maintaining independence and quality of life as you age. Breaking a hip after 65 carries a 40% one-year mortality rate, yet this risk is preventable with proper screening and treatment. Whether you're approaching menopause, recently diagnosed with bone loss, or simply planning for healthy aging, this episode provides crucial knowledge to keep your skeleton strong for decades to come.Support the show

La Osteopenia y la osteoporosis son palabras conocidas para muchas personas mayores. El diagnóstico de una pérdida grave de masa ósea, como lo es la osteoporosis, puede causar mucha ansiedad, ya que esta condición generalmente significa que los huesos de una persona se han debilitado y son más propensos a quebrarse o fracturarse. La osteoporosis es reconocida como enfermedad específica desde épocas remotas, habiendo sido descrita ya por Hipócrates. En el diccionario se le describe como enfermedad ósea que se caracteriza por una disminución de la densidad del tejido óseo y tiene como consecuencia una fragilidad exagerada de los huesos.

Coinciding with World Osteoporosis Day this special episode features two fabulous people: Sarah and Paul McGee - who have an incredible story to share (and have been instrumental in my own journey after a ‘diagnosis' of Osteoporosis).In the episode Sarah shares her journey from an osteoporosis diagnosis at 53 after two stress fractures and her journey supported by husband Paul, a sports therapist, packed with science-backed practices that took her from osteoporotic to osteopenic in just 5 years.In the episode we discuss the differences in the REMS scanner vs DEXA, learn more about fragility scores and discuss the exercise that supports bone density health - especially for women in perimenopause.I know this episode will inspire and empower other women (as the McGees did for me) to challenge everything you thought about osteoporosis being inevitable or irreversible. 

Send us a textEvery October 18th marks World Menopause Day, highlighting a transition affecting over a billion women worldwide who spend at least a third to half of their lives in this phase. Despite its universal nature, menopause remains poorly understood and inadequately addressed in many healthcare settings.Speaking of Women's Health Podcast Host Dr. Holly Thacker walks you through the menopause journey in this episode. She touches on the increasing severity of health issues during menopause, including metabolic syndrome and hypertension, which compound cognitive challenges like word-finding difficulties and "brain fog."Dr. Thacker will focus on the key to navigating menopause - establishing care with a knowledgeable women's healthcare clinician who can create an individualized approach based on a woman's unique symptoms, medical history, and preferences. By addressing menopause proactively rather than reactively, women can minimize symptoms while protecting their long-term health and vitality during this important life stage.

You've heard the message: lift heavy to build strong bones. But what if that advice— when done too soon or without proper form — is leading more women to injury than strength?In this episode, Debi Robinson sits down with Carl Reeder, a functional movement specialist and strength coach, to unpack what it really means to build strength safely when you have osteoporosis or osteopenia.They dive into the difference between lifting heavier and lifting smarter, how to avoid common mistakes, and why true strength begins long before you ever pick up a dumbbell.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy “lift heavy” isn't one-size-fits-all advice for women with osteoporosis or osteopeniaThe importance of connection, communication, and control in building strength with women having bone health issuesHow the back body chain supports posture, balance, and bone strengthThe difference between safe strength and forced intensityHow to avoid injuries through awareness and progressionSimple ways to reconnect with your body before increasing loadAction StepsFocus on connection before load. Build awareness of your posture, movement, and alignment before adding weight.Train your back body. Strengthen your glutes, hamstrings, and spine to support your bones and balance.Slow down your movements. Time under tension builds more strength—and better form—than rushing reps.Listen to your body. Mild soreness means adaptation; sharp pain means stop.Work with a specialist. A qualified trainer or yoga therapist can help you progress safely and avoid unnecessary injuries.Resources and LinksLearn more: Healthy Gut, Healthy Bones ProgramWork one-on-one with Debi → Book a ConsultationFollow Carl Reeder for movement and strength training resourcesListen to more episodes → Stronger Bones Lifestyle PodcastDebi's Takeaway“You can't strengthen what you're not connected to.”When you move with awareness and respect your body's limits, you build not just stronger muscles—but a stronger foundation for life. Safe strength is strong strength.

In this episode, Dr. Sarah Court and Laurel Beversdorf delve into the claims and marketing tactics used by two high-profile menopause experts and social media influencers, Dr. Mary Claire Haver and Dr. Vonda Wright. They explore and critique various aspects of their advice, including the advocacy for supplements like turmeric and collagen, the promotion of hormone therapy, and questionable exercise prescriptions. The hosts analyze the scientific validity of their claims, the potential harms, and the prevalence of fearmongering in their messaging. The episode aims to empower listeners to become more critical consumers of health information, especially in the menopause space.Sign Up for Our Free Strength Class THIS FRIDAY!Follow us on InstagramReferences:Episode 37: Plyometrics – Get More Bang for your BonesEpisode 96: Bone Density Grifters – Introducing the Grift-O-Meter!Episode 103: Do Weighted Vests Do Anything For Us?Episode 109: Hot Flashes, Cold Facts: Menopause Myths That Won't DieEpisode 110: Fact Checking Female-Specific Training & Nutrition Advice with Dr. Lauren Colenso-Semple, PhDEpisode 111: Make Stacy Sims Make SenseThe Pause LifeCalorie Restriction with or without Time-Restricted Eating in Weight LossInflammatory mechanisms linking obesity and metabolic diseaseThe power of creatine plus resistance trainingThe Effects of Creatine Supplementation Combined with Resistance TrainingDose-Response of creatine supplementation on cognitive functionEffects of Collagen Supplements Dietary Supplementation with Specific Collagen PeptidesOral intake of specific bioactive collagen peptidesSpecific Bioactive Collagen PeptidesVonda WrightThe musculoskeletal syndrome of menopauseSingle Leg BalancingManaging Menopausal Skin ChangesTopical estrogen for skin agingDr. Wright Instagram Posts:MSK Syndrome of MenopauseF.A.C.E.Estriol for faceCanyon RanchBone DensityHip FractureStep DownWeighted VestsGrip Strength

Sitting often makes sciatica feel instantly better because a posterior pelvic tilt opens the nerve exit holes—but that short-term relief can reinforce the problem. In today's live, we explain what's really going on at L4/5–L5/S1, why repeated flexion (knee-hugs/child's pose) “feels good but harms,” and how to sit smarter (reclined, supported neutral) while you rebuild capacity. Then we show how to prevent those “getting up = lightning bolt” moments by learning neutral-spine transitions and using the Core 6 (Dead Bug, Marching Bridge, Squat, Hip Hinge, Step-Up, SLHH) to restore load tolerance. Member Q&A covers spondylolisthesis, night flare-ups, “squat on the toes,” deficit deadlifts, flights, Roman-chair/back extensions, and more.Start here → https://backinshapeprogram.com/start/Highlights:

When it comes to bone health, we often talk about calcium, vitamin D, or strength training — but few people realize that strong bones actually begin in the gut. In this solo episode, Debi Robinson explores one of the most overlooked root causes of bone loss and osteoporosis: poor digestion.Through years of working with women with osteoporosis and osteopenia — and interpreting countless stool labs—Debi has seen a clear pattern: when digestion falters, bones weaken. Because the truth is, it's not just what you eat—it's what you absorb.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy digestion is the foundation of bone healthThe step-by-step “mouth to bones” process of nutrient absorptionSigns your digestive system may not be working properlyHow poor digestion and inflammation trigger bone lossThe role of the gut-bone axis in osteoporosis and osteopeniaSimple, practical steps to support healthy digestion and stronger bonesAction StepsSlow down when eating. Take deep breaths and eat in a calm, mindful state to support proper digestion.Chew your food thoroughly. Digestion begins in the mouth—help your enzymes do their job.Stay hydrated, but skip large drinks during meals. Avoid diluting stomach acid.Add more fiber. Aim for 30 grams daily to support your microbiome and regular bowel movements.Consider functional testing. A stool lab can uncover the root cause of poor digestion or nutrient malabsorption.Resources and LinksLearn more: Healthy Gut, Healthy Bones ProgramWork with Debi one-on-one → Book a ConsultationMore episodes of the Stronger Bones Lifestyle Podcast → Listen Here

In this episode of The Coaching Advantage: Real Stories of Strength & Nutrition, Niki Sims and Andrew Jackson sit down with Barbell Logic coach Chrissy and her client Linda to share how consistent coaching transforms life at every age. Linda began lifting in her 70s while navigating scoliosis and later osteoporosis. With the right coaching and smart training modifications, she built confidence, strength, and muscle that carry over into everyday life—from carrying groceries to picking up grandkids.

Are you sure you're measuring your fitness the right way? If you had doubts about BMI, protein intake, or whether certain workouts are truly safe, this episode clears it all up. Today's episode is a Q&A episode. Amy Hudson and Dr. James Fisher answer your questions across four different topics. They cover smarter ways to track progress, how much protein your body actually needs, the safety of strength training with osteoporosis, and why slow-motion training delivers powerful results. Tune in to learn how to track your success more effectively, fuel your body the right way, and train smarter for long-term strength and health. Question 1: What Metrics Should We Track for Exercising Success? Why BMI isn't the best measure of success. Dr. Fisher explains that BMI is just height and weight—it doesn't account for muscle mass. That's why a “high” BMI might actually mean you're stronger and healthier, not overweight. Dr. Fisher emphasizes that real progress comes from strength training, eating whole foods, and daily movement. When you focus on what you can control, the number on the scale becomes less important. Dr. Fisher reveals how bioelectrical impedance analysis goes beyond weight to measure fat mass and lean muscle. This gives a far clearer picture of your health than BMI or a simple scale ever could. Question 2: How Much Protein Do You Really Need? Why protein isn't as risky as many think. Dr. Fisher explains that even at high intakes, there's no solid evidence linking protein to kidney damage. The old warnings about bodybuilders “ruining their kidneys” simply don't hold up. How protein works with strength training. Without resistance training, extra protein won't build muscle. Dr. Fisher makes it clear that strength training is the real driver of growth—protein just fuels the process. Learn the smartest way to eat for strength. Amy and Dr. Fisher highlight the importance of whole proteins with essential amino acids.  When combined with consistent strength training, this creates the perfect formula for building strength and function. Question 3: Is the Exercise Coach Workout Safe for Osteoporosis? Dr. Fisher explains that whether it's a dumbbell, a grocery bag, or a machine, your muscles only know they're working. That means resistance is resistance—what matters is how it's applied. How Exercise Coach makes workouts safer. Amy and Dr. Fisher describe how their exobotic machines control range of motion, eliminate the risk of dropped weights, and are supervised at all times. This creates one of the safest environments possible for anyone with osteopenia or osteoporosis. Learn the science behind the machines. Dr. Fisher reveals how isokinetic, computer-controlled movements keep every rep slow, consistent, and joint-friendly. That precision protects your bones while still pushing your muscles to adapt and grow. Question 4: What Is the Science of Slow-Motion Training? Why explosive movements fall short. Dr. Fisher explains that moving too quickly shifts the load to momentum instead of muscle. That not only reduces effectiveness but also increases the risk of injury. How slow motion maximizes muscle use. By removing momentum, every second of the movement keeps tension on the muscle. This creates a deeper, safer, and more effective workout. Amy shares the true benefit of slowing down. With slow-motion training, you don't just get better results—you also reduce stress on your joints. That means you can build strength while protecting your long-term health.     Mentioned in This Episode: The Exercise Coach - Get 2 Free Sessions!

In this episode, Dr. Vonda Wright steps out from behind the interview chair to deliver a powerful and practical masterclass on bone health. As an orthopedic sports surgeon, Dr. Wright has seen firsthand the devastating effects of fractures—often caused by osteoporosis—and why bone health should be a priority at every stage of life. She reveals how bones are far more than structural scaffolding: they are living, dynamic endocrine organs that store essential minerals, generate blood cells, and even secrete hormones that affect the brain, metabolism, and reproductive health. Dr. Wright shares eye-opening statistics on hip fractures and their impact on longevity, why peak bone density matters in your 20s and 30s, and how life events like pregnancy, breastfeeding, and menopause accelerate bone loss. Most importantly, she outlines proven strategies to strengthen and protect your bones across your lifespan—through hormone replacement decisions, strength training, impact exercise, and smart nutrition. Whether you're in your 20s building peak bone mass or navigating midlife changes, this episode offers essential insights to help you stay strong, mobile, and fracture-free for decades to come.  ••• Make sure to follow Dr. Vonda Wright: Instagram: @drvondawright Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@vondawright Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drvondawright LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vonda-wright-md-ms-2803374 Website: http://www.DrVondaWright.com ••• If you enjoyed this episode, Subscribe to “HOT For Your Health” for more inspiring episodes.

Endocrinologist Joy Wu says that osteoporosis can affect more than half of women and a quarter of men over 50 – often without symptoms until a fracture changes everything, leading to a loss of mobility and independence. Wu explains why bones weaken with age and how to strengthen them through exercise and smart medicine. Her lab is exploring innovative drugs and turning skin cells into new bone-forming osteoblasts. We're delving into the great mystery of building new bone and making old bones stronger, Wu tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?

EP. 225:  Grab my FREE 4 Part Video Series: GLP1s Uncovered: https://bit.ly/GLP1uncovered Today I'm covering the pros and cons of SSRIs and what the science really tells us about their effects on your health. We'll explore the limits of serotonin research, what the studies reveal about bone density, hip and spine health, and fracture risk, along with how serotonin receptors influence these areas. I'll also cover potential downsides like cardiac risk, increased bleeding, and nutrient depletion, but we'll balance that with some surprising benefits on brain health and their anti-inflammatory effects.  Topics Discussed: → What are the pros and cons of taking SSRIs? → How do SSRIs affect bone density and fracture risk? → Can SSRIs impact heart health and bleeding risk? → What are the brain health benefits of SSRIs? → Why you should never stop SSRIs without medical advice?
