E297 - High Impact Exercise Is Not The Enemy

Do high impact exercises bother your joints?

Maybe running bugs your knees, or jumping and landing hurt your back.

Or perhaps your body actually feels okay doing high-impact exercises, but you choose not to as a precautionary measure.

Oftentimes, when high-impact exercises bother people’s joints, they decide to not do them out of fear of making their joints worse.

BUT, there are some big issues with not doing high-impact exercises, especially if you want to maintain your muscle strength and bone density.

So how can you get the benefits of high-impact exercises without worrying about hurting yourself?

On this week’s episode of the Exercise Is Health® podcast, that is exactly what Julie and Charlie are diving into.

They lay out exactly what you need to do to make high-impact exercises less stressful on your body and joints so you can get the benefits of them without risking injury.

Check out all of the details in this week’s episode!
