Exercise is always good for you: for your weight control, your cardiovascular health, your lipid profile – and for your bones. Exercise also helps maintain flexibility and balance, reducing your risk of falls and fractures. So exercise is an as important risk reduction tool for osteoporosis as a healthy nutrition.
Weight-bearing exercise, such as walking or Nordic walking, helps protect your bones and provide you with other health benefits. Other types of weight-bearing sports include anything that gets your heart beating faster, such as jogging, low–impact aerobics, stair-climbing, tennis and dancing.
Resistance exercise (weight training) can help to build muscle – protecting the bones from fractures and you from falling.
