Exercising with free weights, using resistance or stretch bands and weight machines, or doing water exercises are forms of strengthening exercises that also slow bone loss. This type of exercise strengthens the muscles and bones in your upper arms and spine. Bone loss increases the risk for compression fractures in the spine. The stooped posture, that is a characteristic sign of osteoporosis, is caused by compression fractures.
