Osteoporosis?
Good exercise programs improve balance and prevent risk of falling.
Great exercise programs do all that AND improve bone density.
Osteoporosis Australia CEO Greg Lyubomirsky says “this type of training can help people with osteoporosis and osteopenia. We know exercise is important for maintaining bone health and latest research is now showing there is a better way to exercise.”
Professor Beck added “when it comes to our bones the research tells us not all exercise is equal. In fact exercise that is targeted, supervised and focuses on resistance and impact training is best.”
