Training to Improve Bone Density in Adults
Bone Health in Adults
Your skeletal system is your body's foundation, but it often goes overlooked, especially by those who aren't already experiencing symptoms of degeneration. Our bones are constantly replacing themselves, and when we exercise for bone strength, the body releases hormones that promote tissue growth. When we don't exercise, the body has a harder time keeping pace with this constant process of building new cells to replace old ones.
These factors combined create a risk factor for osteoporosis, a disease characterized by low bone density and frequent fractures. As adults age, the risk for osteoporosis increases because bone loss begins to outpace the formation of new bone cells -- however, strengthening your bones at any age can help prevent osteoporosis in the long term.
OsteoStrong is a unique, science-based system that enables you to safely and effectively increase your bone density and improve your overall musculoskeletal health. Our Osteogenic Loading exercises stimulate the release of growth hormones, which helps strengthen your bone density without the need for unnecessary medications or risky weights.

Strength Exercises for Arthritis, Posture & More
Low-Impact Exercises to Strengthen Joints & Bones
Osteoporosis isn't the only skeletal condition that can negatively impact your life. Poor postural habits and chronic, excessive stress on your joints can lead to symptoms like back pain, joint pain and a host of other related health issues.
Some of the most common causes of back pain include sitting for long periods in front of a computer, poor posture and muscle weakness. For example, if you have poor posture and tend to slouch at your desk all day, this can lead to lower back pain and tightness in the muscles connecting the pelvis to the spine.
Some of the most common causes of joint pain include repetitive motion injuries, arthritis and ligament damage. Joint pain can make it difficult to perform everyday tasks and can lead to a sedentary lifestyle, which further contributes to muscle weakness and other health problems.
OsteoStrong training is designed to correct poor posture and relieve the chronic stress that affects all areas of the musculoskeletal system. By including an active recovery phase in each workout, our program helps prevent the build-up of unnecessary tension in your muscles and joints. Additionally, because of the unique yet simple way that OsteoStrong sessions engage the entire musculoskeletal chain, including exercises to increase bone density in the lumbar spine, many members are able to see dramatic results following posture exercises for osteoporosis.

How long does it take to build bone density with OsteoStrong?
With OsteoStrong, sessions aren’t just quick – they’re also fun! Your results will be measurable, and you’ll notice the difference in a short amount of time. With just 15 minutes of bone building exercises for osteoporosis per week, you can increase strength and bone density, improve posture, balance and athletic performance.
Why is OsteoStrong a better alternative to medication?
Bisphosphonates are generally the first line of defense for patients diagnosed with osteoporosis. Unfortunately, the risk of side effects can make this a complicated decision.
Until now there were few exercise-based non- pharmaceutical options that offered significant increases in bone density in a safe manner for even the most high-risk patients.
OsteoStrong offers a highly effective, evidence-based musculoskeletal strengthening program that can be used to complement pharmaceutical treatment and as a preventative protocol.
