Have had osteoporosis for 4 yrs now (4 dexa test/one per year). Hips and Neck have improved or stayed the same, but the spine gets worse every year. I'm so glad to see exercises specifically for the spine. Seeing these makes me realize that most of my exercises were for my legs. I'll be adding these to my routine. Thanks so much.

Thank you so much. I am two months into healing a compression fracture at lumbar 2.

Do you guys have a reading list for physical therapy? I am interested in learning more. Like I know you have mentioned some in other videos I just can't remember what they were.

You guys are brilliant - thank you.

I got compression fracture 7 weeks backs still I do have pain can I start doing these excercises

GOOOOOOOOOOD!

Thx u❤️❤️❤️

Hi there I love your videos. I got a compression fracture snowboarding in my T12 in January and it’s still not healed but have been advised to resume some movement. Thanks for this vid. It’s great. If you have any other recommendations that would be great as recently I’ve met many other snowboarders who have had similar injuries over the years. There are never many videos online specifically for spinal injuries due to sports. Usually it’s aimed towards elderly people with osteoporosis.

Adverts are so annoying! I love your videos… My physio has asked for an X-ray as she thinks I have a compression fracture…I have osteopenia. Greetings from the U.K.❤️

Brads arms are dreamy

i love you guys ! Good Dat to You

What are some exercises you can do after a fracture. I am scared to do anything but don't want to gain weight because I am trying to allow my spine to heal like it should.

thanks

Thanks a lot for all these exercises!! I need the ball. I have compression fract. on my vertebraes between T4-5 and T6-7 and they hurt a lot and I have a bump on my back that formed at young age since I got some things develop before time and started hiding my chest and so now I'm paying for it. So, what I want to know if still I can do these exercises without problems? since many times when I stretch too much I get sharper pain. Thanks for your help. Blessings!

Hi Gricel, I have chronic back pain and just found out I have Osteoporosis in that area.....but I am also concerned I may have compression fractures. Did you do a regular x ray to find out you had fractures or a different test? Thanks!

my Os is worst at the lumbar, is it common? thanks for this. Best wishes

Guys, I would love to watch and do the exercises on many of your videos, but if you'd cut to the chase, I think many more folks with osteoporosis would be interested in your exercises and other good info. There is SO much info out here from a vast array of individuals, and there just isn't time to research it all for safety and listen to long instructions or too much extra chat. Maybe start a comedic medical channel and just make straightforward ones for those of us who are desperate for a program they can trust to help us keep from fracturing. Just a suggestion. I think your material could be useful but it's hard to follow it with all the extra stuff. Thanks.

I have a compression fracture of T-12 due to 2 grand mal seizures and I will be 66 in 2 months. Please answer this question. Both shoulders have previous surgeries and they both hurt since the seizures, but the right shoulder is worse than the left. Suggestions would be appreciated.

Bob’s goin to Heaven!

Sir plz upload one physical therapy video for als patients neck issue and lower and uper muscle plz for als mnd motor nevron disease

I love the intro song. Lol

What u can do if I do these exercise but when I do routine activity I feel pain in my back due to mulitple compression fracture in the mid of spine. What do u suggest I use hyper extension braces or surgey? Need u expert advice. And when I laying my bed the clicking sound raise inside the spine.

This is great cause I didn’t know what to do! This is just strengthening the muscles though and not getting rid of the compression right?

😢😢🥺🥺. I love working out and some exercise are a no no! Many exercise personal trainers have no training in this!!! Thanks!

No problem!

Thanks Bob and Brad. I think you guys are knowledgeable and fun. I have both osteoporosis (thoracic spine); and osteoarthritis: both hips (femur neck). Nearly everytime I do some jumping; hopping; etc. (Wolff's Law); my hips hurt. Any advice. In total I do about 24 'hops' on each leg. Star jumps I do about 15. Maybe I should reduce these a little and 'build up' allowing my hips to adjust?

Can you do these exercises if you have a compression fracture in L1?

Hi Bob & Brad, been subscribed for a while and you have both helped me alot. I have spondy & chronic pain that comes with it. I am currently reading a great book called Back In Action by David Hanscom MD who is a spine surgeon. Not sure if you have heard of it. I think you would find it very interesting and would love to hear your thoughts on its methods. He has a few interviews on KZread to give you a summary. As many of your subscribers are in similar position to me I would love you to promote this book if you think if of value. I think it can be life changing and goes hand in hand the philosophy that comes across in your videos. I wish I had come across this book earlier and just hope that with your large audience you could get the word out. Thanks for helping me through the last few years especially with Brad's first hand spondy experience helped me side step surgery. In has ment alot. Tony from Australia

Can you do these exercises if you have compression fractures already

Can these substitute for lifting weights? I get shoulder enthesitis/tendinitis with even 2-4 lb weights, but have heard that weight bearing is only way to help bones stay strong.

Will this help with degenerative osteophytic bridging of right SI joint anteriorly? Thanks

Can you do a backbend using the exercise ball. This seems to feel great to me but just wondering if it is safe with osteoporosis.

YOU GUYS ARE SAINTS

A LOT of women who have stopped taking prolia get compression fractures...including me. Any extra recommendations for us?

Hi there- just found out that I have osteoporosis of the lower back- L1-L4 ...can I use a bungee cord instead of an exercise strap?

OrangePain ILikeIt hi, just wondering how you are doing now with your T6 compression fracture as I did mine about 8 weeks ago and still struggling a bit with it too, been having chiro treatments for it and it’s helping so I was keen to hear how another T6er is doing 5 months on from it. Thank you.

When you are in so much pain, how do you do these exercises?

Are these exercises safe to do following burst compression fractures that have completely healed???

Can these exercises be done when you already have a compression fracture? 11th T ...my PT is only doing ultrasound, no exercise guidance

Excellent techniques! Are these safe if you've already had a compression fracture?

Hi Bob n Brad! I just want to ask about my osteoprosis of spine n hip..T.score of my spine is _3.5 which is v high ..plz tell if I can do these exercises or not.Secondly, I am doing almost all exercises you have told.My doctor asked me to do the exercise by lying down with my face downwards raising my head upwards to improve spine posture..He says I should do exercises related to legs strengthening .

Are these exercises (the hallelujah overhead exercise) okay to do if someone already has an L4 compression fracture?

Sure wish I could lay on my stomach, I have a L3 fracture and nine broken ribs from CPR. I’m trying to you strengthen my muscles but it’s so hard to walk, breathe, move. But thank you for showing me a few that I am able to do.

Hi Sir, my compression fracture is healed almost as I fell. Can I start these exercises now you are showing here. I am afraid to do exercises. Thank you

I just had a wedge compression fracture (T8) would you still recommend these exercises? I'm pretty sure I've gotten it from doing jumping jacks so what can I do now that I have a fracture to try to keep my spine healthy?

I have a T12 compression fracture and osteopenia. I don’t even know how I got the compression fracture. The fracture I do have is 49% is it safe to do these exercises I will be seeing a spine specialist but I’ve been left out in the field. Basically this is what you have and now you have to wait to see a specialist. I had to leave my part-time job for a while, and my life has really been very depressing.

Hello. why dose my back make popping sounds when i bend or twist. Thank you.

Is it unsafe to do the ball stretches against the ground? Or to do bridges? Just wondering if we can take that stretch too far.

On june 6 i tripped, fell and have a compression fracture. When can I start these exercises?

Thanks guys....love your work. Dumb q alert: I guess three sets of 15 reps? Tia

HI Bob & Brad, i was scheduled for a knee replacement surgery in Oct. 4th and i have osteoporosis, Doctor says Ok, please do me some advise.10 years i don't bend my right knee while walking (bone on bone). I'm 65 and still working

I have a compression fracture in T12 I start PT next week can you tell me will this help and can it heal? I’m very active but guess maybe too active. I of course have osteoporosis. Thanks Bob & Brad.

are the posture braces they sell help with this at all? Thank you. Love the videos

I have old untreated compression fractures. Car accidents , ostiopedia, some back issues since childhood. I'm 69 this month. Can old compression be fixed, cos a chiropractor just told me most likely not. I'm in a grwat deal of daily pain & the compression is interferring with be being able to stay i dependent.

I am 70 but do not have osteoporosis yet. I I took a hard fall backwards off of a low retaining wall about ten days ago and have three fractured vertebra. L 1, L2 and L5. Will they heal properly and when can I start exercising? At the moment there is too much pain.

I had a t12 fracture two years ago rollerblading. They put me on bedrest for a month or so. No cement no anything. Ever since, it's been killing me.

What's wrong if *after* you stretch, when you go back to normal, it feels like things are being pinched, sharp pain in-between several vertebrae.

Can anyone share information about how they pick things up from the floor without bending over? Presumably there’s some sort of (very) long handled tongs for purchase?

Generally when should the patient start these exercises after an acute collapse fracture?

My t3 t4 and t5 are fractured. If the fractures occurs on the inside of the spine why is it all the pain I feel feels like it’s on the backside of spine, say if you were to touch my back that’s the side of the spine that hurts not the inside ?

I'm 37, n have severe osteoporosis n many compression fractures in my thoracic spine. I was 6'1. Now I'm 5'9 n 1/2. It's cause by long term opiate use. N my testosterone level is 130. Is there any help to correct it besides a medieval torture stretcher rack? Although I'd try anything at this point. My ribs have flared out along with the top middle if chest

I'm only 52 and have several fractured vertebrate
