When you have osteoporosis, some classic exercises can be tough on the spine. But that doesn’t mean you need to avoid them, just adapt.
Today I’m showing you how to make the Hundred more bone-friendly by placing a couple of cushions under the head and shoulders. This simple change supports the upper spine, eases pressure and keeps the exercise both safe and effective.
💡 Osteoporosis tip: Good posture is key for protecting your spine. Slouching can put extra strain on weakened vertebrae, while upright, lengthened posture helps reduce the risk of fractures and supports balance. Gentle core and back strengthening exercises (like this one) play a big role in maintaining that posture.
💜 Remember, it’s not about avoiding movement, it’s about moving in ways that keep you strong and supported.
✨ Follow me this week for more osteoporosis-friendly adaptations and tips.
