The Starting Gate Episode 24: Don’t Break It, Build It: How to Strengthen Your Bones & Reduce Fracture Risk with Dr. Nick Trubee
Osteoporosis is more common than you might think—and often preventable. In this episode, we’re joined by Dr. Nick Trubee, an expert in exercise physiology, who specializes in using resistance training to improve bone strength. We explore the key lifestyle factors that affect bone health, including nutrition (think calcium, vitamin D, and protein), common risk factors, and why early screening matters. Dr. Trubee also shares how resistance training can be a powerful tool to not only prevent bone loss, but to build stronger bones at any age.
