It’s important for you to know what other conditions may affect this so you can discuss management options with your doctor. Managing the causes of secondary osteoporosis can help maintain your bone density at a higher level.The big ones: c

What LIFTMOR doesn’t tell youEvery one of the 49 women in the LIFTMOR trial group completing heavy resistance training, had direct supervision. Small groups, a maximum of 8 participants to 1 instructor, and that instructor was an exercise scientist or a physiotherapist. Twice a week, in a university facility.That’s probably why a trial full of women with a T-score below -1.0 recorded one adverse event in eight months.This is likely how the injury incidence was so low, over an 8-month duration.Th

I like to keep my advice movement and function based. Lot’s of what I see online focuses on the DEXA results and the medical management. But a DEXA doesn’t actually tell you how and what your skeleton can do.Over the years of seeing patients with osteoporotic fractures. It doesn’t go bone thin then fracture. Slow reduction of bone density, gradual strength loss, movements that used to be easy getting avoided due to weakness and then suddenly a fall or a small movement leads to a fracture.The fra
The Robust Skeleton: Heavy Loading vs Impact (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There are 2 ways to stimulate bone density changes. They run on different signals.1- Heavy loading works through muscle and compression. For example when you’re deadlifting you have the compression of the weight running through the bones, but also the stress added to the bone by the muscles around the hip. In 1997 Lu et al, studied this by fitting instrumented hip implants into patients and found the forces ran from 1.3 - 30 times the actual external load, depending on what the muscles were doin
Six Popular "Bone-Building" Exercises That Don't Build Bone (opens the original)
Read excerpt
101 women spent eight months exercising twice a week for 30 minutes a session. They were split into two groups to test how different training programs affect bone density, with good adherence from both.The control group (52 women) did a typical low-intensity routine at home, walking to warm up, light resistance work with dumbbells capped at 3kg, and stretches to finish.The high-intensity group (49 women) did heavy weightlifting under supervision, consisting of deadlifts, back squats, and overhea
