The Profound Benefits of Heavy Weightlifting on Bone Health with Dr. Peter Attia

1/16/2025

2 Comments

 
Related to my last couple blog posts about bone density and how to build and maintain bone density with jumping and heavy weightlifting, below is a video where Dr. Peter Attia interviews the head researcher of the LiftMOR study Belinda Beck, Ph.D. about the study and how to apply the principles to your life. 
Some key topics they discuss are: 
  • How strength training can lead to improvement in posture and height
  • How strength training can reduce fall risk and fracture risk, especially in older people
  • How strength training not only leads to improved bone density and quality, but also improved grip strength, balance, back extensor strength, and quality of life overall

WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY

I really just wanted to express my gratitude for what you do and your great help. And, great help it was!! When one is in constant great pain for as long as I was and so desperate for help...words cannot express what I want to say....how can I thank you enough? You helped change my life. 
– Carrie
I feel soooo limber and free in my hip movements and relaxed in my low back. Outstanding and I'm very impressed with the pdf's and the videos, great support to the client. Wonderful job, keep up the great job. – Mike
It is amazing! I've been in pain for 5 years and worked with other therapists and no one has been able to help me. Working with you I am 95% pain free! It feels so good to not have any pain and be able to walk and do things I haven't been able to do for years. Thank you so much! - Joni
