I use a Teeter FreeStep Cross Trainer which helps me get in my daily exercise. I used to have an elliptical and liked it also.

Another great resource is Sara Meeks,PT. She had been working with osteoporosis clients for 30+years. You can find some podcasts and exercise videos on YouTube. Also she sent me some information I use daily. She has osteoporosis herself, and greatly reduced her numbers with her exercises and Low Intensity Vibrations unit.
Also Loren Fishman has his 12 yoga exercises for osteoporosis which have shown to help. They are enjoyable and build such flexibility!
Free weights are helpful if you can.. need real help with this because form is essential.
