One of the steps that is essential to preventing and/or reversing osteoporosis is exercise. A lack of exercise results in an inactive lifestyle, which in turn leads to poor posture, poor balance, and weakened muscles, which will encourage the loss of bone mass. Regular exercise will prevent you from developing these symptoms. Each person’s exercise regimen will be different, as it is influenced by a variety of things: age, severity of osteoporosis, medication, fitness, and other medical conditions. Because of the complexity in creating a suitable exercise programme, you should strongly consider visiting a personal trainer. In the case that you have serious osteoporosis, always get your doctor’s opinion when beginning or altering your exercise regimen. There are 3 types of exercises that best for treating osteoporosis. Weight-bearing exercises, such as walking, jogging, and dancing, will increase your bone density. The idiom “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” is applicable to bones. Your bones, when put under stress, will recover and become stronger than they were before. As long you are careful not to push too far and accidentally break them, your bone density will increase as a result of the exertion. Resistance training (free weights, resistance bands) works in a similar fashion to the weight bearing exercises, and will increase your bone density, as well as muscle strength. The third type of exercises that are those that improve your posture and balance, such as tai chi. These exercises will not make your bones stronger, but they will alleviate problems that are common to osteoporosis sufferers. If you improve your balance you are less likely to fall, and therefore are at less risk of breaking your bones. Swimming and water-based exercises will not work well for improving your bone strength, since the water will offset your body weight. However, if you have severe osteoporosis or are incapable of doing other exercises, these are good places to start. Some exercise is better than none at all. Similarly, walking is not ideal for treating osteoporosis, unless it is done at a fast past or on difficult terrain, but once again, it is better than nothing at all. There are some exercises that osteoporosis sufferers should avoid, as they risk causing a fracture. Exercises involving sudden forceful movement, forceful twisting, or forward flexion of the spine are all dangerous to attempt if you have low bone density. There is no perfect amount of exercise for people with osteoporosis since there are many variables, but you should aim for:
When beginning your regimen, start at a low level, and work your way up to the more intensive exercises as you build strength. Diving straight in and beginning with intensive exercise is actually more likely to cause a fracture than help you, since your body is not used to the exertion. Exercise is only one part of increasing bone density. Osteoporosis is caused by a calcium deficiency, so you will need to adjust your diet in conjunction with exercise in order to reduce your risk of fractures. A diet rich in calcium and vitamin D that includes foods such as fish, dairy, eggs, mushrooms, and tofu will go a long way to restoring bone density. Avoid alcohol and smoking as much as possible since this affects your bones, and ask your doctor about taking calcium or vitamin D supplements. A combination of diet and exercise can work wonders to reduce the symptoms of osteoporosis, or even prevent it from happening in the first place. Click here for information on bone density tests.
