That’s pretty cool, @geranium1. I heard recently that balancing on one foot also helps BMD. A friend of mine says she stands on one foot while brushing her upper teeth and switches feet for the lower jaw, which I thought was pretty clever.
Your post is good news 😃 indeed!!
Cheers!

@beanieone practicing balance is so important. This is a great way to do! And if you fall out of it, start again!
@beanieone
There is a great online course by Margaret Martin. Melio Guide. It gives a lot of great info on osteoporosis along with exercises. She is a physio therapist who specializes in osteoporosis.
She has an exercise where you raise up on your toes and then drop hard on your heels. Heal drops. Also very good for improving bone density.

@beanieone I should think it’s great for our balance as well.
