Free Community Health Q&A: Understanding Heart Disease Risk and Exercise

Event Date: 2026-06-19

Have questions about your cholesterol, bloodwork, heart health, or exercise?

Join preventive physician Dr. Nadia Sirdar and performance coach Tiffany Nesfield for a free community discussion and Q&A focused on understanding cardiovascular risk and what current research tells us about exercise and long-term health.

Topics include:

• Beyond cholesterol: understanding ApoB, Lp(a), and other emerging cardiovascular risk markers
• The new PREVENT risk calculator and how it differs from traditional assessments
• Why strength training plays an important role in healthy aging and disease prevention
• VO₂ max and why it is considered one of the strongest predictors of longevity
• Exercising safely and effectively when dealing with knee, shoulder, or back pain
• How to build a sustainable exercise routine based on your goals, schedule, and current fitness level

This will be an informal conversation with plenty of time for questions from attendees. Feel free to bring recent bloodwork results if you’d like to better understand the numbers being discussed.
