Join us every Monday at 3:00PM ET for a safe strength training and stretching class.
This exercise program has been developed for those who have been diagnosed with osteoporosis or osteopenia. Of course, it is important to secure approval from your healthcare provider before beginning any new exercise routine. Studies have shown that resistance, weight-bearing and impact exercises help to build bone density. It is crucial to learn how to exercise properly because the wrong exercises or improper form can lead to fractures and injury. This class will show you the exercises that should be performed, the exercises that should be modified and the exercises that should be avoided. Each exercise will be demonstrated in several positions so that the class is appropriate for various fitness levels and other health issues.
