Exercise, especially resistance training, is good for your bones 🦴

Want to learn how you can increase bone density, even after menopause? Yes, really! 🎉 ⬇️

💬 Comment “BONES” below 💬 ⁠
⁠..and I’ll DM you access to our FREE Menopause & Bone Density Cheat Sheet.⁠

Your bones are the living foundation of strength—but they need your support to stay healthy.

Here’s why it matters:⁠

➡️ Before 35: Strengthening your bones early sets you up with a higher “peak bone density,” giving you more to work with as you age.⁠

➡️ 40s Onward: Women lose about 0.5% of bone density (BD) every year.

➡️ Menopause: BD loss accelerates to 4.4% in just a few years—raising risks for:

🚫 Osteopenia: weaker bones
🚫 Osteoporosis: brittle, fracture-prone bones⁠

But with the right strategies, you can:

✨ Slow bone loss.
✨ Strengthen your bones post-menopause.
✨ Lower injury risks for a vibrant, active life at ANY age.⁠

This Cheat Sheet has the 3 Key Pillars of Bone Health:⁠

🦵 Exercise: The most effective strength training & impact activities.
🥗 Nutrition: What to eat (and avoid!) for bone health.
🌱 Lifestyle: Easy ways to protect your bones long-term.⁠

Thank you Tasmania Fire Service 🙏

A heartfelt thank you to the hardworking volunteer crews who have been working tirelessly on the Snug Tiers fire for the past week.

Under challenging conditions, crews have been on the ground day and night, strengthening containment lines, conducting backburning, and keeping the Channel community safe.

While the job isn’t over yet, we appreciate the dedication and commitment of everyone involved. Your efforts don’t go unnoticed - thank you! 👏

Great initiative 👏🏼👏🏼

Residents at a Tasmanian aged care facility are embarking on virtual cycling adventures around the globe, building strength and fitness from the comfort of their lounge rooms.

OneCare's Barossa Park Lodge in Glenorchy is trialling two Motiview bikes, which combine adaptable indoor bikes with a video library of cities worldwide.

93yo Joan Jordan has been taking part in the program since the start of the year and says it has helped her physically and mentally.

"I'm a person who needs to have a goal. I can't just sit around. And so this sort of woke me up and it really made a difference. And everybody says, oh, you look so much better."
