Looking forward to presenting at the @OrthoInstitute Keele/Oswestry annual cartilage symposium this week.
Thinking through the opportunities we have for joint health preservation as we age, become injured etc ...
In addition to @JApproach for OA management in later life, we have the @OPTIKNEE initiative for post ACL injury from the brilliant @jwhittak_physio et al.
We have so many more opportunities to do the simple things well

So interesting
"...older adults who talked with peers about their exercise program were able to increase and sustain physical activity levels much better than those who focused on self-motivation and setting fitness goals"
The group effect was so powerful & important in the @JApproach programme for ~30% of participants
