In this in-between episode of the Movement Logic Podcast, Laurel discusses two major myths: the longevity significance of grip strength and the role of single leg exercises in improving balance. The discussion touches on the misinterpretations of grip strength's correlation with health and longevity, different types of grip and their training, and the genetic factors influencing grip strength. It also covers the efficacy of using gloves and straps. Additionally, the episode explores how single leg exercises contribute to overall strength and balance, challenging the notion that these exercises are essential for improving balance and athletic performance.

In this in-between episode of the Movement Logic Podcast, Sarah discusses a new product for osteopenia called Osteoboost, a wearable medical device that uses gentle vibrations to improve bone density and strength, offering a non-invasive alternative to traditional treatments. Sarah delves into the research behind the device, its FDA clearance, and its effectiveness compared to medication and exercise. She emphasizes the importance of heavy lifting for bone health, and expresses concerns about people relying solely on passive treatments like Osteoboost instead of engaging in comprehensive exercise routines.
