The Best Way to Exercise for OSTEOPOROSIS

What's the Big Secret to Developing Bone Density???



Well... my typical tenet for training is to observe the masses and do the opposite, and here we go again! It's the same story for a different disease. People so often have the best of intentions following the worst of advice.

As the owner of one of the largest fitness centers in Connecticut, I've met hundreds of people over the years who have joined my facility specifically on "doctor's orders," prescribed to stride their skeletons to strength, substance, and solidity on a treadmill.

Unfortunately, the "weight-bearing" exercise of walking doesn't have a leg to stand on.

In fact, walking is just the beginning of weight-bearing exercise. Sure it's fine to walk for exercise (especially if you like walking, because that's about all that it gets you in shape to do). However, if you're truly interested in developing bone density, after you're done with your walk, your should then run to your nearest resistance training program.

So, the secret is, once again, to do the opposite of everyone else. And since everyone (and their osteoporotic mother) is walking as weight-bearing exercise...

DO SOMETHING OTHER THAN WALKING

Walking isn't bad... it just isn't good. Walking only impacts a handful of bones from one given angle. To effectively impact your complete skeletal structure, you MUST have forces pulling on as many bones, from as many directions, as possible.

So how do forces pull on bones?
