SUMMARY:Strong Bodies\, Better Bones
DESCRIPTION:Join us to focus on exercises that challenge muscles and introduce weightlifting to support maintenance of bone density.  Weights\, bands and more will be utilized.  Chair options are available in this fast-paced weekly session.  Registration is not needed for this class. \n\n\n\nStudies have found that cancer treatment and chronic disease worsens both skeletal and muscular integrity\, while weak bones and muscles can lead to increased risk of disease\, creating a cycle of deterioration. Exercise can help mitigate changes during and after treatment.

SUMMARY:Strong Bodies\, Better Bones
DESCRIPTION:Join us to focus on exercises that challenge muscles and introduce weightlifting to support maintenance of bone density.  Weights\, bands and more will be utilized.  Chair options are available in this fast-paced weekly session.  Registration is not needed for this class. \n\n\n\nStudies have found that cancer treatment and chronic disease worsens both skeletal and muscular integrity\, while weak bones and muscles can lead to increased risk of disease\, creating a cycle of deterioration. Exercise can help mitigate changes during and after treatment.
