What's the best forms of exercise to increase bone density?

I think everyone is different and that statement is being cautious. From what I’ve read lots of people sustain compression fractures with a sudden twisting motion. I have a -3.3 L1-4 T-score and I still do very controlled twisting movements, but I have a very strong core and have been doing those types of exercises and activities for years. I don’t push the twist as far as I used to, or with as heavy weights, and I make sure my movements are very controlled. I don’t want to stiffen up, and then need to twist in an emergency and have my body not used to the motion. So far so good.

Hi @lynn59 or anyone,

Any good core strengthening routine you’d recommend? I’m looking for 1-5 must do’s for core. As an example, I consider squatting a must for lower body (quads and glutes).

Is Superman post recommended still?

Thanks a lot!

I just got diagnosed with a tscore of -3.2.
The week i was diagnosed, i had played 3, 9 holes of golf. The month before, i had been at the range 5 times a week. I dont see an endocrinologist until July. Until then, i plan on living my normal life which is playing golf 2 times a week. But i will add some supplements, add weight bearing exercises and do yoga (for osteoporosis) a few times a week.
