Hi @tsc thank you so much for your suggestions! found Fishman's 12 posts vs osteoporosis on yt! I've been doing 2 of them as my core exercise, ppl call it glute bridge and "superman". will definitely study further and incorporate the remainder to my routine
I have been wearing weighted vest or weighted backpack on and off since April. started with 2 pounds, now at 4 pounds. nowadays I wear it while I'm in kitchen prepping meals so 30-45 min x3 times daily. longer duration I do notice tiredness and/ or discomfort around knee or shoulder. with a low bmi of 19.4, I figure my bones generally don't have enough stimuli hence they need extra push
your suggestion of rebounder workout with a mini trampoline is very interesting! I watched a rebounder video on yt, most of the jumps are similar to the ones I'm working on with another physical therapist on yt. the difference is i jump on softer surface. I also wear matatarsal pads to protect my poor feet. I do notice my knees are not too happy after 1 week of starting this impact exercise. I may get a mini trampoline if I found jumping addictive
in a recent discussion with my endo regarding my mixed results at one year mark post forteo, she said exercises do not help build new bones. I'm confused now and needing to digest this info!!! regardless, I definitely will continue to workout as much as I can
