I know.
They're not sexy and they actually don't feel very good, but that's kind of the point is that you can generate over four multiples of body weight just by doing a simple heel drop.
So maybe we're thinking about different things.
So when I think of a heel drop, at least the study I'm referring is essentially standing on a flat ground and the advanced version is barefoot on concrete.
Don't start there.
But barefoot on concrete, if you want to get the maximum effect, rise up onto the balls of your foot and then just let your body weight fall with your knees essentially locked out.
Now, everybody listening, please don't go through this.
So we're going to try it and you'll be shocked at how much impact it is.
Of course.
It's a very difficult position to be in.
And this is why early intervention is so important.
Because when I do get those questions from women in their 60s and 70s with a T score, a negative three, a negative four, inevitably, they're asking, well, will this cause a fracture?
And the answer is, I have no idea.
I can't tell you if it will or if it won't.
But what I can tell you is that if you do nothing, I know what that trajectory looks like, right?
It will get worse.
So we have to pick a starting point that you're comfortable with.
And I would say start low, go slow.
There's no way to know.
There's no way to know.
