We all know how important it is to stay strong and agile as we age. But how do we do that without putting too much strain on the body through heavy exercise? In today's episode, fitness expert Joan Pagano joins me to dive into an incredibly effective training tool for improving agility, balance, and bone strength.

Joan shares her expert knowledge and practical tips, and we discuss how step training is key to reducing fracture risk by strengthening bones and improving mobility. I love Joan's approach because, in addition to exercise, it prepares your body for real-world situations. The training enhances muscle strength, bone health, balance, and coordination, helping you avoid falls and navigate daily life with confidence.

At the end of this episode, Joan gives us a sneak peek into a step training class she'll be hosting on December 11th. For a fresh, fun way to improve your strength, you won't want to miss this one!

"Step training is a really fresh approach to another aspect of fall prevention for osteoporosis, to prevent falls and fractures…And it helps prepare you for real life." ~ Joan Pagano
