President’s Report The sun was shining on Royal Melbourne on Monday and both courses were in magnifi-cent condition. There are so many people to thank for making the day such a suc-cess. The Golf Day Commit-tee combining Beaumaris Rotary and Black Rock Sports Auxiliary, for taking on the mammoth task of planning the event. The many members and partners from both Clubs who volunteered for this very important fund raising event. The Royal Melbourne Golf Club for generously offering us the use of both courses and the function staff for the delicious lunch. Thanks to our sponsors Brighton Jaguar, PKF, Bayside City Council, The House of Golf and Lowe Design. The 400 players who came to participate in the Bayside Charity Golf Day, congratulations to the winners. We were delighted that Leslie Falloon was able to join us to present the Leslie Falloon Perpetual Trophy to the winner. The Golf Com-mittee are already making plans for next year’s event on 27th May 2019. Last Thursday night Hanna and Milly from Total Balance spoke to us about the importance of exercise as medicine for osteoporotic pre-vention ad management. Thanks to Megan’s for your bringing the yoga mats as prizes, we hope they are being put to good use. Our much anticipated Keith Bulfin Night on 11th October at VGC is now fully booked. Over 100 people will be attending including mem-bers and partners from our cluster clubs Cheltenham Hampton and Sandringham. Thanks Bob McArthur for organising the event.

Topic: Exercise Intervention for Osteo-porosis Prevention and Management

Hannah Geelan

B. PHTY

Total Balance Physiotherapist and Pilates Instructor

What is osteoporosis?

Systemic skeletal disorder characterized by low-bone

mass

Affects over a million Australians.

1/3 women, 1/5 men over the age of 50 years

It is a silent disease which means that there are no warn-

ing signs until a fracture occurs.

Results in over 165 000 fractures annually

Diagnosis

Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA)

This technique is commonly used to measure the central skeleton, hip or some parts of the peripheral skeleton

such as the arm/wrist bones

Risk Factors

Modifiable: physical activity, body weight, excessive alco-

hol consumption, smoking

Non-modifiable: family history of OP, hormones (menopausal women, slow decline of testosterone in

men), calcium and Vitamin D levels, medical history

Management of osteoporosis

Medical and lifestyle management

Medical Management

Biphosphonates

Denosumab

Oestogen Replacement

Strontium ranelate

Exercise Intervention

We know that there is good evidence of efficacy of exer-cise and physical activity for osteoporosis management

and prevention

(Fuchs et al 2001, Vondracek & Linnebur 2009, Winters &

Snow 2000)

But what exercise is best for bone health?

Resistance

Weight-bear

High intensity

Mobility

Falls / balance

ESSA Statement

Evidence from animal and human trials indicates that bone responds positively to impact activities and high in-

tensity progressive resistance training

Furthermore, the optimisation of muscle strength, balance and mobility minimises the risk of falls (and thereby frac-

ture)

It is important that all exercise programs be accompanied by sufficient calcium and vitamin D and address issues of

comorbidity and safety

(Beck et al, 2017)

Weight-bear training

Evidence is strongest for exercise that is weight-bearing compared to non-weightbearing when it’s in the addition of medical management for osteoporosis (Shanb and

Youssef, 2014).

Examples of weight-bearing activity:

Walking

Playing golf

An aerobics or other gym classes-weights and

body weighted

Clinical pilates with standing-based exercises

Running

Skipping

Jumping

Wall squats

Step ups

Walking up or down stairs

Marching on the spot

Repetitive sit to stands

Resistance Training

Addition of therabands, weights, body weight, spring-loaded eg equipment pilates machines such as trapeze

table, exo chair and reformer

No recipe approaches

As a physiotherapist, in my clinical experience, the safest form of exercise is that prescribed by a qualified practition-

er following an assessment of YOU

There are obviously many people who have osteoporosis, who are not going to be able to run/skip/hop/jump for many reasons eg post surgicals, co-morbidities eg heart

health

Combine all areas of exercise into a program that works

best for your body, health and interest

Case Study

Know Your Bones

A joint initiative of Osteoporosis Australia and the Garvan

Institute of Medical Research

It is an online bone health self-assessment generating a report explaining your risk results and personalised rec-

ommendations.
