Summer Activities – Golf

Original Air Date : May 13, 2026

During the summer months, there are many ways to exercise, participate in organized sports and simply enjoy activities in the great outdoors. Join Osteoporosis Canada with Dr. Caitlin McArthur, Associate Professor in the School of Physiotherapy at Dalhousie University, who will be hosting four webinars focusing on different summer activities and sports.

As soon as the early signs of spring appear, golfers start counting down the days until their first tee-off of the season! Golfing is a great outdoor sport, a good form of exercise, can be done on your own or with a group and it’s fun! But for those who have been diagnosed with osteoporosis – you may need to make modifications or choose a different way to play the sport depending on your condition.
