severe osteoporosis

[Radars]

which are the best exercises to strengthen core muscles for severe osteoporosis.

I have severe osteoporosis and have suffered spinal fractures. I was advised "The Bridge" is the best exercise to strengthen the core muscles which helps with your back. I would strongly advise you to take a look at the Royal Osteoporosis Society Website its very helpful and informative and has videos of various safe exercises. You can also give them a ring and get advice free of charge and they will send you out information and booklets. theros.org.uk Tel [phone]. Good Luck

I live in Somerset. You are lucky to have a class, hope it helps you.

Weight bearing exercise like walking is good as is pilates and yoga for muscle strength. If you Google exercise for osteoporosis sufferers I'm sure you will find something to suit you x

[Radars in reply to Cappuccinobaby]

yeah but exercises for severe osteoporosis are different.

[Cappuccinobaby in reply to Radars]

That's why I suggest going on Google or as HappyDiamonds suggested contact the Royal Osteoporosis Society for their help xx
