I'd like to recommend two professionals who provide a lot of information on movement and osteoporosis:
1) Sarah Meeks is a physical therapist with many years of experience and teaching. The website is at: https://sarameekspt.com/
2) Loren Fishman teaches yoga for osteoporosis. His book shows various movements and postures for different levels and stages of osteoporosis, using props to maintain safety.
Take care!

These posts are very helpful to me because I'm just learning that planks are better than sit-ups. I will see if this quiets my creaking back. Every time I do a sit up I listen to my back cracking and creaking. There is no pain but it's noisy and disconcerting. Much less noise with the plank.

I have been searching for PTs who specialize in osteoporosis. I found MelioGuide Physical Therapy on YouTube and plan to delve deeper with Margaret's program.

I will check out your suggestions - thank you!
