Aerobic Exercise for Over 50 and Seniors

Physical Therapist Margaret Martin presents a 12 minute aerobic weight bearing workout for osteoporosis. Designed for the active senior.

The caption at the beginning of the video states "please consult with your physician before engaging in exercises." This is particularly true for people with compression fractures or low bone density.

There are gentle heel bounces at minute 4:00, 4:26 and 4:46. If you have one or more compression fractures or back pain you may wish to skip these moves.

Thank you very much. Your channel is so beneficial to me. In my last medical exam they found I started having osteoporosis, I was so afraid but since i started taking action I discovered you channel and I do your exercices everyday to start my day before work. I'll let you know the results of my next medical test. Your exercices are also fun to do! Blessings to you!❤

Thank you, Margaret. I am a new fan! I am so grateful to have found you. I have two of your books now, and plan to invest in the third one on yoga. I just learned that I have osteoporosis, which shook my world a little. Finding you has made all the difference. Thank you for making your wealth of knowledge and experience accessible.
