EXERCISE AT HOME DURING COVID-19 WITH DR. LORA GIANGREGORIO

Original Air Date : April 23, 2020

As we continue to practice physical distancing and self-isolate, it’s important to stay active to help manage your bone health and osteoporosis and to reduce your risk of breaking a bone during COVID-19.

Join Dr. Lora Giangregorio to learn about the types of exercise that are effective for fall and fracture prevention, and how to develop an exercise program at home. Dr. Giangregorio will lead a discussion where you can ask general questions about exercise.
