    FB/IG: Bone stress injuries (BSIs), including stress fractures, can sideline service members. These injuries often result from repetitive force on bones during activities like running, marching, or load-bearing exercises. Prevent BSIs with these tips:
    - Gradually increase exercise intensity, focusing on agility, power, and balance alongside cardio and strength training.
    - Allow time between workouts for bone recovery.
    - Eat nutritious foods to support bone health.
    - Prioritize sleep; recovery starts with rest.
    Early prevention and proper care can reduce BSI rates, improve resilience, and keep service members mission ready. #DefensePublicHealth

    X: Don’t let bone stress injuries sideline you, soldier! Gradually increase exercise intensity. Rest between workouts. Eat nutritious foods. Prioritize sleep. Strong bones = Strong force! Stay mission ready. #DefensePublicHealth
