    Wow, so much information. I am 71 years of age and have osteoporosis. I was 52 years of age and trying hard to work on my osteoporosis I was aggresively jumping and fracture my t8 in my spine. The only fracture I have had trying to benefit from this. I am glad you expressed how to do this carefully.I do exercise, lift some weights and walk. We do need to move. Thank you

    Thank you for this interesting information. Unfortunately for me, I have tried, jumping in various forms. My knees are always sore and achy for days after. It doesn’t matter how much or little I jump. I was convinced a rebounder would help but ended up returning it. I am a 70-year-old in excellent health and been working out since my 30s. Just recently, I was diagnosed with osteoporosis, especially in my hips. I’ve joined a fitness club and work out moderately. For me I need to listen to my body.

It’s a good way to walk for as long as you can, but you don’t have to factor in the return trip! Start small - and gradually increase the length of time when your strength improves. Another bonus is you don’t have to worry about tripping over stuff. There are free rebounder exercises on YT.

    I was diagnosed with osteoporosis two years ago; it was called mild, of course they push calcium which I've stopped taking, as I've been taking it all my adult life and I've never had any positive results with calcium supplements. I am now using a mini rebounder; a vibrating plate, breeding resistant exercise, some weights will add a weight vest. I'm apprehensive about jumping because of my knees I don't have any problems, maybe I can incorporate that gradually.
    I was asked to take medication for my osteoporosis and I refused: I'd like to do it naturally. ( Also I've tried to get my diet better, ) I also am taking more minerals, switched to Celtic salt. 🙏❤️

    Great video. I recently found your channel and have incorporated several of your recommendations into my daily activities. I have often wondered about whether jumping were beneficial or detrimental to those with "bony" issues. I already have one TKR and that knee functions well (with the exception of some limited ROM). My question involves the other knee which radiographically looks to be in the same condition as the one that was replaced. The orthopedic surgeon said it was only a matter of time until I need the other knee replaced but as long as I wasn't having pain it could wait. I do have occasional discomfort after walking. None during Pilates which I do several times a week. I also had a lumbar fusion years ago due to compression by a synovial cyst - not disc issues. I have osteoporosis. Would jumping be contraindicated in my situation?

I have never felt comfortable jumping, so instead I have recently embraced stomping. However, I also suffer from sciatica and recently, I had a recurrence of sciatica after an absence of sciatica symptoms for tthree years. This was a few weeks after commencing stomping, I was therefore wondering if the stomping could have triggered the sciatica recurrence.
