Midlife offers a powerful opportunity to reset and refocus.

EPISODE 77: STRONG FROM THE INSIDE OUT: WHY PELVIC FLOOR HEALTH MATTERS FOR YOUR BONES
On this episode of Bone Talk, BHOF CEO Claire Gill is joined by Ingrid Harm-Ernandes, PT, WCS, BCB-PMD to unpack a topic many overlook in bone health conversations: the pelvic floor. Their discussion reveals how this hidden muscle system plays a critical role in strength, balance, mobility, and fall prevention. The pelvic floor is more than just a support structure. It acts as a foundation for the body, working in coordination with the core, hips, and spine. When functioning properly, it supports organs, controls bladder and bowel function, contributes to sexual health, and stabilizes movement. When it is weak or not functioning correctly, it can increase the risk of falls and fractures.
