I think that this book offers some easy excercises that you can do. The pictures are easy to follow and the explanations are simple.
Get of the couch
You can take medication for osteoporosis but you need to get off the couch too. Working out and keeping your body active is what this book is about. No you do not have to be a workout fanatic. No the exercises are not too hard. This book helps you to build bone density and muscle strength with easy to follow exercise pictures. If you do have osteoporosis these exercises can help ease some pain too, plus you get moving and find yourself having more energy. Another plus about this book is it improves your balance. When you have osteoporosis you are especially concerned about falling and breaking a hip. I personally like this book because the workouts are easy and it has helped me improve my energy.

good information
Helpful information for excercises. Easy to understand with many pictures in the book. Helpful suggestions to improve the quality of your exercises with plans outlined for different levels of exercise. I recommend this book.
Don't be fooled by the title
As a clinician-scientist, I believe in evidence
based medicine
There is no evidence base to support the work-out
shown here to my knowledge have been proven
to build bones as opposed to other types
of exercise. As scientist from respected institution
like NASA can tell you, the only most important
way the body needs to stimulate bone building
is periodic weight-bearing exercises & stepping.
The same view is shared by neurophysiologists
of NIH of USA
This kind of title is extremely misleading
& should be taken with a grain of salt
