Anyone had experience with OsteoStrong, who is not a franchisee?

?349? wow. Mine waas 150$ Spine T was -2.7

Thx for your answer. I went for a demo yesterday and blew out an old injury to my thigh...a pulled muscle. I also blame the leg press. I talked to my holistic doc about it (he'd be more open to this than an MD) and he said to stay away. It's a gimmick, and the key to successful exercise for OP is to BE CONSISTENT...that you lose what you've built in as little as say, 10 days. So stick with traditional weight-bearing exercise, but do it every day! Good luck...

I am in a biodensity clinic now with the original concept. OsteoStrong took the original (biodensity.com) and turned it into separate machines - I have been told.

My weekly 10/15 minutes has a doctor at my side talking through each detail of posture, position to make it effective and safe.

Only six months in - jury is still out. Just appeals more to me than lifting weights even with side by side trainer. SO many details involved.

There is no biodensity in my area, so I started OS. I have only had three sessions and I am a long way from reaching the required level to build bone. I will have a dexa scan in the fall and check back with whether OS made any difference.

I have been driving 150 miles a week to the closest OsteoStrong location and it is so worth it. In only 10 weeks my Dexa scan improved significantly. I feel stronger every week. My comment on injuries is this is the coaching you get. Go different times to meet different coaches to find one that works with your needs. I need someone to remind me of my positioning and checks me carefully before I push or pull. Looking forward to research coming out later this year to demonstrate what I have anecdotally experienced.

I would encourage you to be lifting weights 2-3 times a week to increase your overall strength. It is critical to meet that stimulus level so you may have to do chair squats and counter pushups to get to that point.

I do all that —OS is just an addition. ❤️

i know someone who did that program. i do not think he had another Dexa after the program. However, his previously noteworthy scoliosis seemed to improve;——and his posture appeared remarkedly improved

Are you talking about your dexascan results?

Hi @laurenann when you say you have had no sugar for the past 5 months - does that include not eating fruit and carbohydrates? I have done short periods where I consumed no sugar other than sugar that occurred naturally in vegetables- like sweet potatoes. I always feel so good on a sugar free diet - but it is hard for me to maintain. But you have given me the motivation to get back on the sugar free lifestyle. 🙏
