Bone density gains from yoga and barbell training!

11/6/2019

I'm excited to report that one of the readers of this blog with whom I've corresponded over the past year has received great DEXA results after practicing the 12-minute daily yoga routine from Dr. Fishman (previously posted here) 5-6 days a week and resuming barbell weight training. She is in her 60s and after one year of practicing this yoga routine and adding weight training she gained 3% in her spine, moving out of osteoporosis. She had gains in her hip, also. 

It's not just any exercise that helps, but these specific yoga poses and weight lifting that targets the spine. I'm very encouraged and wanted to pass this on to all of you.

    I am a "boomer" myself, and interested in bone density because of a family history of osteoporosis. I believe that the condition is not inevitable, but it is hard to fight in our culture. As a patient, exerciser, friend, mom, citizen, and consumer, I want to share what I've learned.
