This week, Michael Dermansky, senior physiotherapist at MD Health, is joined by a special guest, client Richard James, to discuss the importance of being strong and the difference it can make in your life.

At 50, after an active lifestyle, Richard was diagnosed with stage four lymphoma. He had to re-examine how to manage his life. After two rounds of chemotherapy, he wasn’t able to do his usual fitness activities such as boxing. After discovering Pilates, he hasn’t looked back; he feels stronger than ever, while also feeling more energised.

In the episode, we explore the important role strength plays in many aspects of life, and why being stronger is one of the most underestimated secret weapons for being able to keep doing the things you love.

Let’s get confident!
