Benefits of exercise

It's never too late to start exercising. Regular physical activity can:

• Increase muscle strength.
• Improve balance.
• Decrease the risk of broken bones.
• Improve posture.
• Lessen pain.

Exercising if you have osteoporosis means finding the safest, most enjoyable activities for you based on your overall health and amount of bone loss. There's no one-size-fits-all prescription.
