Susanna’s suggestions for strengthening bones

Training for bone health is important especially as we age. It helps maintain strong bones and joints, supports overall mobility and reduces the risk of fractures. Regular bone-strengthening exercises also helps reduce the risk of osteoporosis. Three effective exercises for bone health are …

 

Walking or brisk walking

Walking or brisk walking is a simple weight-bearing exercise that helps strengthen the bones in the legs, hips, and spine. Because it is low impact, it places less stress on the joints while still providing important benefits for bone health and overall fitness. Regular walking can also improve cardiovascular health, muscle strength, balance, and endurance.

 

Resistance training (using weights or resistance bands)

This type of exercise helps strengthen bones by placing controlled stress on them during movement. In response to this stress, the body stimulates bone growth and increases bone density over time. It is particularly beneficial for strengthening the bones in the arms, shoulders, and spine, helping to reduce the risk of fractures and osteoporosis.

 

Step-ups

Step-ups are a weight-bearing exercise that helps strengthen the bones in the legs and hips by supporting the body’s weight during movement. Regularly performing step-ups can promote bone density and contribute to stronger, healthier bones over time. This exercise also improves balance, coordination, and lower-body strength, which can help reduce the risk of falls and injuries.

 

If you’re interested in learning more about how to strengthen your bones come and speak to Susanna, she will be happy to take you through sessions or develop a programme to help you with your goals.

Fitness fact

Muscle burns more calories than fat, even when you’re resting. While the difference is often exaggerated online, having more muscle mass does increase your resting metabolic rate because muscle tissue requires more energy to maintain than fat tissue.

Bonus fact: after a challenging workout, your body continues to burn extra calories during recovery through a process called excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC), sometimes nicknamed the ‘afterburn effect’.

Polite reminder

Please remember that bags are not permitted in the gym or at the top the stairs. Tennis bags should be placed into a locker, and smaller bags can either be kept in lockers or the storage available at the base of the stairs to the gym.

Please be mindful of other gym users when you are training. While we understand you may need to use your phones to assist in your workouts, please note that is unfair to use them excessively whilst on equipment as this can cause others unnecessarily long waiting times. Excessive phone use is also unwelcomed during classes, as it is important you are paying full attention to the instructor for your own safety and the safety of others.

Please understand during busy periods it is kind to be mindful of other Members, try not to have lengthy recoveries unless needed and if possible, share equipment with others during your recoveries.

Studios classes are phone free zones, please refrain from using these while participating in a class. If it is an emergency, leave the class and use your phone in a designated phone area.

Remember the importance of wiping down equipment after use when in the gym. This protects yourself and others from becoming unwell and helps to keep the equipment in top shape for you to enjoy! There are cleaning wipes stationed around the gym, but should you struggle to locate one please speak to a member of the team who will be happy to help.

Junior guests using the Gym

Junior gym guests (11-15years old) MUST undergo a gym induction before using the gym or they cannot be admitted for their own safety. If a Member plans to invite a Junior guest, it is advised to contact the Health Club Team and book them in for an induction to be delivered directly before they use the gym. The induction takes 30minutes and will not need to be repeated on subsequent visits.
