Takeaways
Osteoporosis is a common skeletal disorder characterized by compromised bone strength, while osteopenia refers to low bone density.
Factors that affect bone density include genetics, lifestyle choices, age, and hormonal changes.
Maintaining bone health requires regular exercise, particularly weight-bearing and resistance exercises, as well as a balanced diet.
Individuals with low bone density should avoid or modify exercises that involve loaded flexion, rotation, or lateral flexion.
It is important to address bone health early in life and continue to prioritize it throughout all stages of life. Avoid loaded flexion exercises for individuals with osteoporosis
Focus on strength training, impact training, and balance/core work for bone health
Incorporate upright work and add weight to stimulate bone mineral density
Empower individuals with poor bone density to enjoy movement and incorporate loaded exercises
Continuously learn and adapt in the Pilates journey
