Thank you I was told not to been forward at all and I’m like well how I post to do that because they said it can break your back. I’ve been doing it for a long time and add exercises but now I’m trying to be very careful with what I do but I’ve been trying to train as hard as possible until they tell me I can’t another thing they say is to stop wearing using heavy weights but there’s a lot of confusion because there’s some research that heavier weights are better

I hip hinge now days after my diagnosis of osteoporosis. I am also good at bar hanging at the gym, besides I am small. I have been weight training at the gym 2 to 3 times a week with some fast and rough walking on the other days. Things feel better, and I am stronger. I have been flexible all my life and used t exercise a lot in my younger years. Nice teaching! I have learned them all, and I feel safe, but I had to educate and do the research myself. Most therapist and drs do not know about safety when it comes to osteoporosis.

Video is very encouraging! I feel I have the hip hinge mastered. I have increased my weights to 8lb dumbbells doing dead lifts 3 sets of 10, 4 times a week. My workout includes shoulder presses, bicep curles, triceps and heel drops. 3 months of this but can't seem to improve strength beyond the 16lbs.

How do I strengthen lower back? Osteopenia in lower back

Hi, I have severe osteoporosis for years and am 70. Also have polio affecting my right hip and walk with a limp. My muscles are also very weak and chronic pain. I swim almost everyday. Does osteoporosis cause pain.? Go to gym twice a week to do bike and rowing machine. My core is very weak and because of polio, it’s very hard to strengthen it.

Are seated rows at the gym good for the scapula area with osteoporosis?

Just found your excellent videos on KZread. I watched 6 tonight and was so inspired I started doing the exercises straight away! I have now subscribed so I can keep up to date. My one concern is that I have osteopenia and in every 'Pilates for Seniors' session I attend we do the 'monkey walk' - forward bending to the floor then walking hands out and doing press-ups (diff options according to abilities). Now I'm thinking that I shouldn't be doing this type of exercise? Plus several other exercises we do which are designed to strengthen core muscles whilst lying on one's back, now seem to be in contradiction to what you are recommending. I'm a bit confused. I do need to improve my core strength and balance so I thought by attending a weekly Pilates session I was being proactive for my health. Now I'm not so sure. Any words of advice?

Great question! No, but the last few reps should be hard. I often say "keep 2 in the tank"

When you get in your late 60 and 70' repetition is very irritating. I am very athletic I sail competitively a laser which is a single handled Olympic class sailing boat, the most athletic sailing boat. For me repetition is not an option but holding position with muscle engaged is more efficient and does not produce the pain of inflammation that repetition does. I am 70.
