Osteoporosis is one of the inevitable diseases for all of us.
Sooner or later our bones will become brittle and break more easily.
Osteoporosis affects all bones of the skeleton - there is a marked decrease in bone mass.
This disease manifests itself at the age over 60 (which is when osteoporosis is usually diagnosed). Osteoporosis has severe consequences for patients: chronic pain and prolonged bed rest due to bone fractures.
Bone mass peaks around the age of 30. Therefore, after the age of thirty it is necessary to maintain muscle tone and stimulate bone regeneration with strength exercises.
