You tend to look better.

But it's more than that.

We see it improves brain health because of the neuroconnections and the neuroplasticity of the brain.

Sleep, mood.

All of those things.

All things.

You get an incredible parasympathetic response when you've done it.

a significant heavy lifting session or a sprint interval session, which you don't get with that moderate intensity cardiovascular work.

Fracture.

Yep.

And then we finish it with some jump training.

Yeah.

So plyometric type work, or if we're looking at not having the robustness of doing straight plyos, then you can do banded-assisted pogos.

You can do low-depth jumps.

You're getting some impact to the bone because, as Dr. Roy was talking about, it's a multidirectional stress exercise.

And people think, oh, I run, I'm going to have strong bones, but running doesn't do it.

You need multidirectional stress.

So if you think about it, when you land, your body has to move, the ground doesn't.

So it's called the ground reaction force that comes up through the bone to create that strength.

So that ideal situation in a workout for her would be some mobility, some heavy lifting.
