About this episode

Dr. Lisa Moore discusses the importance of bone health and strength training for women over 40.

We're back with another Best of The Body Pod episode and this one earns a rerun because bone health is one of those topics that quietly becomes urgent for midlife women, often before we even realize it's happening. In this episode, Dr. Lisa Moore (physical therapist, educator, and founder of Brick House Bones) breaks down the real differences between osteoporosis and osteopenia, walks us through her signature 4x4 strength training method, and explains why building bone density now is one of the most powerful things you can do for your long-term independence. From fracture prevention to strength and balance, this conversation is packed with practical, science-backed guidance every woman over 40 needs which is exactly why we wanted to bring it back for anyone who missed it the first time. Be the First in Line for Shred Happens: Our popular 6-week challenge aimed at shredding fat and building muscle kicks off this October.
