I don't lift weights, but when I asked about it I was told to do "weight bearing exercises". Not being the same as lifting weights for bulk. It involves ankle weights and wrist weights (for example) along with exercises.

Thank you. I’m looking into Dr Loren Fishman’s yoga which I can do at home.

I would recommend to all to invest in Margaret Martin’s book “Exercise for Better Bones” to answer questions regarding about what, and how to implement an exercise program geared toward osteoporosis. I’ve said this before , but she has a big presence on YouTube, and has a website , http://www.Melioguide.com to learn more about exercises and much, much more!!
Good luck as we understand more fully how to spend our time effectively when we exercise and hope for gains or maintaining our BMD!!!
