Brisk walk
Brisk walking is counted as weight-bearing exercise, which helps to build stronger bones. Start initially with 20 minutes and moderate speed. Gradually pace up and aim to walk for longer time and distance. Find a walking partner for company. Walk your dog if you can't do anything much. It will count as exercise. Put on your headphones and walk as you listen to a peppy number to make it more enjoyable.
Climb stairs
This is easy! Isn't it? Take stairs instead of the elevator. Make it a routine. Walk up an extra floor. Climb all sets of stairs of your building or office daily as an exercise regimen.
Dance-strong bones with fun
A wonderful way to build strong bones and have fun at the same time! Ballroom, salsa, hip-hop, jazz, tango-choose your favorite dance style. Join a dance class or just get moving on your own to the tunes of your favorite songs at home in your living room.
Aerobics
This is a low-impact weight-bearing exercise. It is easy to learn and has great benefits like weight loss and improving flexibility in addition to strengthening the bones. Join a nearby gym and learn Zumba. Alternatively grab a DVD and learn yourself. Water aerobics is extremely useful for people with joint problems or limited mobility.
Tennis
This is a weight-bearing exercise which gives cardio benefits as well. There are public courts at many parks and local tennis clubs. If you've not played before, take basic lessons. You don’t have to be Boris Becker or Steffi Graf to play tennis.
Elliptical trainer
An all-in-one exercise machine- elliptical trainer is the great way to build strong bones. It simulates all types of exercises like walking, running, and climbing. It is appropriate for all because it is a low-impact and does not put additional pressure on joints. You can exercise indoors. So no more excuses of bad weather!
