With osteoporosis, there are certain specific exercises that may help promote bone strength. However, it is extremely important to consult your doctor before starting any new exercise routine, as such exercises should be tailored to your specific condition of osteoporosis. Here are some common exercises that may help in strengthening bones: Walking or Hiking: These are generally safe and help in strengthening the bones. Weight Training: Using light weights for resistance training can improve bone strength. Yoga and Pilates: These support your body and may help in improving bone health. Cycling or Aerobic Exercises: These involve cardiovascular activity and may benefit bone health. Bodyweight or Resistance Training: These involve using your own body weight, which can help in strengthening bones. Balance and Stability Exercises: These improve your body’s stability, which can also benefit your bones. |
