JUMP!!!!

Remember when you were young and you use to spend what seemed like hours jumping rope? Little did you know you were helping combat osteoporosis. Studies have shown that jumping helps build bones. Of course, as with any other exercise, be careful not to injure yourself. A few articles to read are:

Phys Ed: The Best Exercises for Healthy Bones

Prevention: Exercise for Healthy Bones

Also, to get more information about osteoporosis I recommend The National Osteoporosis Foundation Website.

Now, go buy a jump rope or just jump in place. Add your arms into jumping in place to increase your heart rate.

Happy jumping!!!
