Yoga for Osteoporosis

Studies have shown for years that common weight-bearing exercises—walking, running, jumping, and weightlifting—provide enough stress on your bones to maintain or increase bone density.  New studies prove that certain Yoga postures offer women another option to build bone. We love including Yoga postures into each TransFit workout to strengthen and tone muscles and to build bone density. Researchers have noted that yoga's established benefits—including better balance and coordination—protect against falling, a major cause of osteoporotic fractures. Studies have also determined certain yoga poses selected might also increase bone density by imposing force on the spine and hips.  

Osteoporosis is a disease that weakens the bones and makes them more susceptible to fractures and breaks. Osteoporosis can be prevented and sometimes treated with a regimen of weight-bearing exercises, walking, yoga postures, as well as good diet and lifestyle routines. The key element to increase bone density is to start slowly with simple yoga poses, and gradually build up the length of practice and level of difficulty. To successfully build bone mass, consistently practice yoga and other forms of exercise for a minimum of 30 minutes a day, five days a week.

Incorporate these 8 yoga poses into your daily workouts to start increasing your bone density! Aim to hold each pose for 5 full breathes, relaxing your neck and shoulders, and inhaling in gratitude with each new pose.
