1. A Sedentary Lifestyle May
Contribute to Osteoporosis
A sedentary (low activity) lifestyle can contribute to overall poor bone health and
increase the risk of osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is a condition which is characterised with
a very low bone density. This lack of density could lead to bone fractures and can be
detrimental to your mobility. Just like your muscles, your bones are a tissue which can
become stronger or weaker over time. Physical activity that is weight-bearing increases
bone mass and density. Lack of activity prevents this process from occurring and
increases the aging process of the bone.
The best type of exercise for bone health is dynamic loading which involves high
intensity movement while bearing weight.
