    I do squatting and reverse lunges daily. Planking 2 times or more for 1minutes each time. Push up on knees, wall, desk, kitchen counter, not on floor. I also swim 5 days a week for 40 mn. I wonder if these work out activities help with osteoporosis. I am 70. I don't see a change physically yet as I still fit in perfectly the same clothes for 20 years. But my joints are weaker than a year ago with achy body from arthritis in the morning until I started to move. The more I move the better I feel. That's the old age, no matter how healthy you are. I will walk in place starting today while watching the News. Thank you 💕

I am so glad I found your channel. Need to change up my routine. I have pain in my middle back. I also have osteopenia in my feet and psoriatic arthritis. Most all my exercises are done lying down but I really feel the need to make some changes.

Thank you for mentioning knee replacements as I had one in May of 2023. These exercises are easy to follow and do. I "snack" on exercise already and I enjoyed your reference to it.

    Is osteopo arthritis the same as osteoporosis ?

    • @AIMFitnessActivitiesInMotion
      @AIMFitnessActivitiesInMotion  3 місяці тому

      No, they are different. Osteoporosis is a bone disease that develops when bone mineral density and bone mass decreases, or when the quality or structure of bone changes. This can lead to a decrease in bone strength that can increase the risk of broken bones (fractures).
      Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease, in which the tissues in the joint break down over time. It is the most common type of arthritis and is more common in older people. People with osteoarthritis usually have joint pain and, after rest or inactivity, stiffness for a short period of time.
      I have an amazing program called AIM Fitness Online, where all of my daily exercise videos are safe for people with Osteoporosis and Osteoarthritis. The videos are 15-30 minutes and don't have any ads in them. You can learn more here: activitiesinmotion.ca/making-seniors-fitness-easy/
