How much weight lifting is required to build bone?

So you weigh 123 pounds. Nice. Our 4.2 is right, but thank you for catching LIFT! With osteoporosis we do NOT LIFT that weight. Both yoga for osteoporosis and OSTEOstrong have us use safe PRESSURE to stimulate bones--with excellent back posture. Yoga has us hold a posture--with a straight back--that is a stretch or twist to pressure/stimulate bones. Always in control. OSTEOstrong has machines with handles or plates that we press on with our arms or legs at a precise angle. And the machine measures the pounds of pressure. My first visit, I pressed 630 pounds with my legs (4.8%+). My arms and core did only 1.5-2.6. Yes, do not lift.

Hi Margo,
I was considering joining Osteo strong, are you still a member, did you get any positive results? I guess I'm asking does it work?

I did Osteostrong for exactly one year and did not get past 3.something, but always hit the rapid growth trigger. (If my recall is correct.) Their prices went up after a year and with no improvement (although I did not lose bone either) I decided to stop and I’m trying weights instead. Unfortunately I did not down load my reports before I left, so I can’t review them now that I know more about the bone-building process. I did get the yoga book and plan to start that this week.
I appreciate your input and I am thankful I found this community.
