Osteoporosis, a disease that results in weak, brittle bones is a major health threat that affects 33 million Americans each year. This disease is referred to as the 'silent disease' because 1 out of 2 women over age 50 and 1 out of 8 men develop osteoporosis and half of them don't even they know they have it. Strong bones are essential for carrying out everyday movements like bending, and lifting. Thick healthy bone exercises are vital for fracture prevention. Guiding you with therapeutic bone strengthening techniques, Suzanne Andrews, Occupational Therapy Practitioner and host of Functional Fitness, shares over 25 years of therapeutic exercise experience to increase your bone density and strength with an expertly instructed 25 minute effective and safe workout. This one of a kind, medically engineered DVD offers you 3 levels of techniques that are fun, and effective. You choose your level either seated or standing and progress safely at your own pace. Whether you're 40 or 70, it's never too early to start a preventative program or too late to put a deposit in your bone bank!
