The outcome of your bone health was determined by your early 20's when you reached your peak ability to build up a bank of bone mineral through impact sport.
Throughout your reproductive years, you produce new bone mineral and at the same same time you clear out old damaged bone mineral.
This process stays balanced until Oestrogen levels drop.
Which is when the fun begins, the balance switches, we have less bone mineral being produced and far more clearing out occurring.
Women lose up to 30% of bone mineral post menopause, which can lead to Osteoporosis or the pre cursor, Osteopenia.
Never has it been more important to maintain your bone health through strength training and progressively build.
I am a Qualified Bone Health Teacher, tailoring programs for Osteoporosis and helping women understand the importance of adding weights into their daily lives.
