Half of Susie’s clients have osteoporosis or low bone density. Her mission is to develop safe strength training programs for women, no matter what their age, level of fitness, or physical limitations. With her popular classes now on DVD, women (and men!) everywhere can easily strength train for stronger muscles and bones.

Susie’s blog, “Motivation to Move for Healthy Bones,” is filled with tips about enjoying exercise, eating well, and staying strong, healthy, and independent for a fabulous second half of your life. Susie is an active volunteer with the National Osteoporosis Foundation as one of four moderators on the NOF’S online forum, commenting on exercise.

Research has repeatedly shown that strength training can stop bone loss in its tracks, in only two workouts a week. But, it’s important to ease into it with appropriate form and intensity, especially when you’re over fifty. Susie began strength training in her forties and is now in sixties. She’s seen what works for herself and her many personal training clients and class participants.

Susie has packed her DVDs with all of the information that she teaches in her classes to help women get safely started with strength training for stronger bones. Healthcare providers recommend Susie’s classes and DVDs to their patients.
