SUMMARY:BALL Lecture Series: Optimal Aging
DESCRIPTION:The Search for the Fountain of Youth\nWhat if I told you age-related decline wasn’t inevitable? \nThe search for the Fountain of Youth may be over. Science confirms that resistance training is the closest thing we have to a biological pause button against the ravages of time—the aches\, the loss of independence\, and the pervasive belief that you must give up things you love because you’re “too old.” Despite overwhelming research\, adoption remains low\, leading many adults to surrender strength every year. \nTogether\, we’ll dive into the compelling science proving how strength training can change your life. We’ll explore the benefits for both living long and living well\, covering chronic disease prevention\, maintaining mobility and independence\, boosting cognitive function\, and reducing pain. Finally\, you’ll receive practical\, actionable guidance on what resistance training should look and feel like\, how often you should do it\, and the mindset required for long-term adherence. Discover how choosing the road less travelled leads directly to the vibrant life you want. \nLecturer –     Clare Donaldson\nClare Donaldson is a Pelvic Floor Physiotherapist\, Barbell Enthusiast\, clinic owner\, educator\, and unwavering believer in human potential. Clare has built her physiotherapy career and business around the belief that strength can be achieved at any age\, and she’s still looking for the person for whom that does not apply. \nClare co-owns CONNECT Rehabilitation in Owen Sound\, where her multidisciplinary team aims to create exceptional care outcomes for their clients that go beyond the traditional model of simply getting people out of pain. She regularly mentors physiotherapy students through Western University\, and is educating the next generation of Pelvic Health Physiotherapists through Pelvic Health Solutions. \nhttps://www.connectrehab.com/about
