My osteoporosis has been made worse by medication I take to help prevent cancer returning. I see a physio and do these exercises. I enjoy feeling more confident as my strength improves. Thank you for explaining how bones become stronger by the tension caused when the muscles contract and pull on the bone (4.00 in the video).
I've got these 3 exercises in my regular routines. I just turned 70, have lost 21kgs in the last 5 years and still going. I feel fitter, healthier and stronger than ever. I've been following you guys for a few years now, and often add new exercises that you go through. Trying to get my 40 something kids to do more strength exercises now as well.
I do 20 squats morning and evening but I have osteoarthritis of my right knee.....I have already had a TKR of the left knee. I am finding it more painful to do the squats....Angelaany suggestions?? Thanks
Hello, thank you for the wonderful video! When doing the deadlift, do we need to keep our feet hip width-apart, or doing like a sumo-squat instead would be easier? Thank you again!❤
I had to start with 'sit and stand' from high stool. Just 5 times a day. All these exercises would have to be reduced to much less for me and for most people I know over seventy. Many can't even lift their arms to shoulder height. The dead lift would need to be only a 2-3 kilos etc
No worries! What's important is that you are regularly exercising and allowing your body to improve its capacity to handle more movement and loading over time. Continue to exercise as tolerated by your symptoms, and you will find yourself progressing over time.
Start by performing 8-10 repetitions with each set to get used to moving with a specific (and tolerable) weight. You can aim to perform 2-3 sets of each exercise in this repetition range, and slowly progress the weight used over time.

That's fantastic, and we are glad to be able to help as well. Keep up the good work!

Any variation in technique is viable. Find the stance that you feel most comfortable in, and stay consistent with it as you progress over time.
