Bone strength (bone density) is greatly enhanced by weight training. Age, certain medications, illness, genetics and eating disorders can all lead to weak bones. Osteoporosis is porous bones. Bone that is not filled solid and is easily broken. Kind of like Swiss Cheese. You want to increase bone density and bone strength. Many people don't think of their bone strength until they are older and they have had a bone density test (DEXA test). If you start taking care of your body when you are younger, there is less of a chance you will have to spend your older years fighting such battles. No matter what your age is, if your muscles are stronger then your bones will be stronger. I have found in my years in the fitness field that every one of my clients that have Osteopenia (beginning of Osteoporosis) and Osteoporosis have been on medication for thyroid even my male clients with it. If you or your kids have to take thyroid medicine, start yourselves on weight bearing exercises. Which means adding weights and resistance to your exercises to make your muscles and bones stronger. It is also highly common for people who have had eating disorders, especially in the bone growing years (up to age 25 or 30) also have weak bones. Our bones grow with estrogen and if woman have had eating disorders like anorexia to the point where they stopped having their periods, it also means they stopped building strong bones. Think about your age, your physical history and family genetics. It's never to late or too early to start taking care of you! |
