I'm 64 and my Dr. is amazed at my bone density for a woman my age. I have been rebounding for many years now and I do my WBV too, along with strength training.
I have been contemplating getting a mini rebounder and wondered if he’d discuss that because I couldn’t think why it wouldn’t help. I’m 65 with osteopenia. Thank you for sharing!
A rebounder is great to do jumps for bone health and I use sessions with and without hand weights. I am 76 and do at least 18 minutes every morning. A balance bar also gives me confidence. Heel drops or stomps also included.
I have disk compression in my lumbar spine following 2 injuries. I've been advised to avoid high impact exercise. I'll be discussing various forms of exercise with my physical therapist.
I'll try some, but it may be too much force with bad knees(bone on bone). Thanks for finding this, it points to when we used to have to hunt for our food, which may happen soon!
One of the best ways to prevent a fracture at home is to carpet your house. Hard wood and laminate are trendy, but they are dangerous for people with osteopenia and osteoporosis (or those with small children who run around). If you fall on hard wood, you are at much greater risk of a breakage than if you fall on carpet. And laminate is even harder, and it is more slippy than hard wood. Spend the money and carpet the whole house (and if you drop your phone, it also won't shatter!)
It makes me wonder why individuals who are trying to improve bone density are asked to check with their doctor. I'm trying to research what will help because three doctors have told me they don't really know.
Unfortunately, I can't give personal/medical advice in YT comments! However, you can ask questions in the OsteoCollective community (www.optimalhumanhealth.com/osteocollective) or in my free masterclass (www.optimalhumanhealth.com/build-bone)!
wow are you an instructor who taught jumping and got a stress fracture from doing it?(with only osteopenia and or still developed osteopenia despite the jumping) if so it questions the safety and efficacy of jumping..
What's really interesting is a simple heel drop feels like way more impact than even a four foot drop. Our muscles and tendons are super good at absorbing this impact and little reaches the bone directly.
I purchased a rebounder. Did 2 minutes day one and 4 minutes day 2. My feet didn't leave the mat, I just gently bounced. Day 3 I started with terrible vertigo. If you suffer at all from vertigo, please be carefull jumping!!! I am selling the rebounder and will never jump up and down again!!
Hello dr from ltaly.l LOVE listening to you but l would not know who to even talk to in ltaly about the complicated things you talk about,sooooo l live in the country alone without central heating where its cold and just heat with wood stoves.Everyday l carry at least 20 trunks of heavy wood into my house then go walking looking for kindling wood to light my stoves.this is quite heavy exersice so l hope between my Med diet and meds l am doing something to help,oh l jump too!

Yes! I’m hopeful we’ll see more studies in the future, and I’ll continue to highlight and share any that come out. Thanks for your input-it's a critical point!
Yes. But The reason they used young men, was to exclude the effect that hormones (including menstruation and birth control) might have on what they were measuring
Love all your content. They are all educational. Could you do a video on what you think about The Perfect Workout? Heard that it also addresses osteoporosis like OsteoStrong. Thanks for all your knowledge.
Can’t do high impact. Always makes my knees hurts more. Am now trying HBV with Power Plate. So far I’m seeing a difference. Will also try heel drops again.
Just a note of caution - I started slowly, cautiously using a rebounder (72 years old at the time), and ended up with spinal compression fractures with only doing it a few times.. I apparently had osteoporosis in my spine and didn't know it (my dexa scan afterward only showed osteopenia).
So the rebounder improved your bone density? You went from osteopenia to osteoporosis right? Is that possible that you might've had spinal compression fractures before starting rebounding?
It is also important to have the correct stance with knees, tracking over toes, your core, as guided by the trainer…. And breathe. Why do we sometimes forget 😁
I'm in a quandary after recently being diagnosed with osteopenia. I have hypermobility and injuries. Unsure how to do high impact with such issues. One thing I'm doing that is outside the box is learning to ride an electric unicycle. This sport is dangerous to be sure but you are getting a continuous core workout, balance workout and basically it's got whole body vibration while riding on many different surfaces.
@@Mag-us6iz I don't take advice from people who don't explain themselves. I necessarily have to wonder what your qualifications are. I think I already know you have none.
Dr. Doug, any thoughts on jump roping? I'm age 55 and do 3,000 jumps a week. Had osteoporosis on my DEXA 18 months ago, and started jump roping shortly after that. Planning to get a follow up DEXA in the spring and hoping to see improvement.

Rebounder is good for the lymphatic system and aerobic exercise but it’s low impact so I don’t think it will help with osteoporosis. You need high impact for that.

Seems the up and down hopping is the one most could do safely at home, but side to side or front and back would be better in a professional setting for a lot of people. I can't think of a truly safe spot in the house for that, and the coordination would be high.
Just finished the exercises. Couldn't jump as high as the young girl 😁 Quite a good workout whatever the impact on bone growth. I must go to the gym more as I'm obviously not as fit as I thought 🙄🤣

Now that I'm almost done with my sclerotic injections in my foot (for a neuroma), I have started doing heal drops (with shoes on) and I will try vertical drops, and maybe hiking with weights (e.g. backpacking). I still can't do any hand weights due to hand pain, but I'll introduce these other exercises over the next few weeks. My DEXA scores increased from -3.0 to -2.5 (femoral neck) and -2.7 to -1.9 in the spine, but I'm suspicious of last year's test. This is a long term project.
It's great to hear that you've made progress with your foot treatment and are incorporating new exercises! Your DEXA improvements are encouraging, even if you're questioning the previous test. Osteoporosis management is indeed a long-term project, and consistency is key. It sounds like you’re being proactive, and it’s wonderful you’re adjusting your approach as you go. Keep monitoring how your body responds, and best of luck with the hiking and other exercises!
@Dr_DougLucas I started to watch the jumping video from the link in the description. But she lands on the balls of her feet, not on her heels. Isn't it better to land on your heels?
Why does no one specify if we need to do high impact with or without shoes to get the benefits? Surely with shoes would take alot of the impact off your bones meaning its pointless?
Imo, good shoes with proper arch support, cushioning and stability support would be beneficial. It softens the impact during exercise but one would still experience some impact and benefit.
@@gemma1211 Since you know the answer, why would you even ask the question ?? I personally would cushion the impact to prevent injury or stress fractures. The impact on a cushioned surface will still be effective, similar to rebound exercises. .

I question the idea that impact training and lifting 4x body weight are necessary to increase bone density. I say this because I increased my spine from -3.6 to -1.6 in six months lifting heavy-but not nearly that heavy-barbells (I also had an outstanding trainer). Because I have scoliosis I couldn’t do any impact training, but both hips and all lumbar vertebrae moved from osteoporosis to osteopenia. I had an echolight scan just before I started and again after six months so I’m pretty certain of the reason for the increase.

With my significant osteoporosis and hyper mobility issues, I started very slowly with heel drops. I initially just did 10 and after a week with no issues, I increased the number of drops. I am now up to doing 2 sets of 45 drops per day. Maybe, after you rest and heal, you could try a slower approach? Just a thought...
If you have swelling, before resuming heel drops, you may wish to check with your doc to see if an x-ray is necessary to rule out any stress fractures.
I started jumping and doing resistance training and ended up with a stress fracture of my femoral head. Which needed surgery. Any tips for when you’re on crutches for 2 months?
When I was using crutches, for the upper body I did single leg pushups, keeping the casted leg off the floor, and dumbbell rows and theraband resistance exercises for the uninjured leg. For the leg exercises, I was seated or held onto a 4-legged walker . The most important are glute exercises on the good side. Because you have a femoral fracture, it is not really safe to exercise the fractured side, so remember to check with your Ortho doc before doing anything.
