Exercise for Strong Bones Summary

Exercise for Strong Bones: A Step-by-step Program to Prevent Osteoporosis and Stay Fit and Active for Life by Joan Bassey

A specially devised home exercise regime for women to help them prevent or reverse the effects of bone loss and stay fit, active and confident for life. It starts with information on how to assess your current level of fitness then takes you through choosing and using weights, body bars and exercise bands and fitness clothes. This is followed by a range of warm-up stretches and exercises then a full programme of weight-bearing and resistance exercises through to the final cool downs. The individual exercises can be tailored to suit personal fitness, strength and flexibility levels - from the super-fit down to those with weak knees. The spiral-bound, stand-up format means that the exercises can be followed easily to ensure correct technique. The purpose, correct technique and advice on adapting the exercise are featured on the top page while the bottom page takes you through the sequence step-by-step. Therefore, the exercises can be quickly accessed by the flip of a finger. Illustrated throughout with photographs and diagrams, and written in clear language, this is ideal for those new to strength training.
