❤️I hate telling women to stop doing things. I see so many working so hard… lifting, balance training, impact BUT
if you have 🦴osteoporosis or low bone density, please pay attention to how you’re picking up and putting down your weights. (Actually really for anyone 🏋️♀️❤️) The foundation is a great resource!
Repeated rounding and twisting of your spine under load puts dangerous compression on your vertebrae. Research going back decades shows this is one of the leading causes of spinal fractures in women with bone loss, and the 💔 heartbreaking part is it often happens not from a fall, but from everyday movement done repeatedly the wrong way.
You are working SO hard. Showing up. Lifting. Doing everything right. 💪🏼
Don’t let one small habit undo it.
✅ Hip hinge to reach your weights
✅ Chest tall, spine neutral
✅ Set them down the same way
The reps between the reps matter just as much. 🦴
Save this and send it to a woman you know who is fighting for her 🦴bone health. She deserves to know. 💛 You got this my friends! Midlife & Senior Home Fitness

If you’re still reading one more note, I recently became certified by the Bone Health & Osteoporosis Foundation recommended by . I’ve been a certified group fitness instructor, personal trainer and functional aging fitness specialist for years with advanced work in osteoporosis. I decided to get BoneFit certified as it was only offered to the medical community in the past and as a fitness trainer on the front lines, I want the BEST training - after many hours testing and final, happy to say I passed! Sharing because at the end of the day I wish we all had Dexa and screening earlier but in the meantime you CAN help yourself. And these little tips go a long way! 💪 hang in there ❤️🦴
