Midlife women: hop your way to stronger bones and better balance
A health feature argues that women in their 40s and 50s should incorporate jump training into their routines to boost bone density and balance, citing expert Dr. Elizabeth Knight. The article outlines a 10-minute, equipment-free jumping workout (warm-up knee lifts, bodyweight squats, calf raises, then front-to-back, side-to-side, and broad jumps) and emphasizes proper form and gradual progression. It also notes safety considerations for those with injuries or conditions like vertebral fractures, and mentions partnerships between Respin Health and Peloton to tailor programs for midlife women.
