In this video, Dr. Doug Lucas discusses the best types of exercise for osteoporosis based on research. He compares high intensity versus low intensity exercise and the effects of medication. The high intensity group performed deadlifts, back squats, and overhead barbell presses, while the low intensity group followed a Pilates-based program called BuffBones. The high intensity group showed improvements in bone mineral density and bone strength, while the low intensity group had no change. The study also found that resistance training and impact training are important for bone health. The conversation emphasizes the importance of seeking one-on-one instruction and doing exercises safely.

This channel is focused on Bones, Hormones, and Healthspan to help midlife women and beyond aim for optimal, not average, and reignite their spark!
The videos on this channel will be focused around helping women navigate healthspan and longevity through the lens of osteoporosis, perimenopause, and menopause. When it comes to osteoporosis and menopause providers and educators often get tunnel vision and your symptoms might get better, but if you don't keep longevity in mind, symptom improvement may come at the expense of heart and brain health.
Subscribe and follow along as Dr. Doug Lucas explores the research and clinical applications surrounding women's health.
