Wonderful to have a 100% attendance demonstrating how great enthusiasm by our staff. One key message - we know greater dosage (no. of reps) relates to greater recovery, and can be considerably increased through self practice and semi-supervised practice with same resource.

Take a look at the positive impact that @CarlyRolOT is already making to the lives of older adults with cancer. Particularly in the outpatient setting, supporting them to live at home, as independently, active and happy as possible 👇
Our July Web Newsletter is out! And we are excited about the data. Keep your eyes peeled for our monthly updates - shared here and internally.

Strength training confers unique health benefits.
Engaging in strength-promoting exercise was linked with:
- ⬇️ 23% reduction in all-cause mortality
- ⬇️ 31% reduction in cancer mortality
Meeting both aerobic and muscle strengthening guidelines further reduced mortality risk versus meeting the aerobic guidelines alone.
