·15 min·1 clip
A client reversed osteoporosis in their hips and nearly normalized spine density with Dr. Jeff's exercise program.
Dr. Jeff Musgrave presents a case study of an older adult with osteoporosis and osteopenia, detailing a two-year exercise program that combined heavy strength training, impact work, and power movements. He shows how targeted loading of the femurs and spine led to significant bone density improvements, nearly reversing osteopenia in the spine. The episode provides practical programming guidelines and dosages for clinicians working with similar populations.
