Average Rating: 
Rating: - Gentle exercise
These exercises were helpful when my back was in pain. The stretching that's recommended is soothing and calming. I am not able yet to do all the ones all the way through, but hope to, eventually. I find that since I'm near 80 it's difficult to get up from the floor, as recommended, but the exercises can be done lying on a bed.
Rating: - Excellent for all stages of osteoporosis and for prevention!
Having been diagnosed recently with advanced osteoporosis, I was looking for exercise books that would be safe for me. I actually have found 3 that I like and will use, but if you are looking for one book that covers the range from prevention to treatment for the various stages of osteoporosis, this is the book for you. It helps you to select or adapt the exercises, depending on your condition. The illustrations are also helpful. One thing I particularly liked was the section "Activities of Daily ... Read More
Rating: - Review of Walk Tall
The book "Walk Tall" is an excellent book to use for exercising. From this book you will learn various exercises to be limber and hopefully avoid osteoporosis. The language is not technical and the illustrations are clear and easy to follow. My wife uses the book in a group physical therapy class but it can be used at home by yourself.

Rating: - Bought for osteoporosis...but rotator cuff injury healed, too
At the reccommendation of a fellow hiker who is a physical therapist, I bought the book to deal with recently-diagnosed osteoporosis. After 3 months, I am already seeing improved posture and flexibility, but the biggest surprise was my shoulder. Injured twice in a few months, the rotator cuff had bothered me for a couple of years, but now all pain is gone, and I have almost all movement range back...which I never expected to have again. Clear diagrams, and a good sense of humor make the exercises ... Read More
Rating: - Book not designed for senior vision
The information and exercises in this book are good...BUT...certainly most of us with osteoporosis are past 60, as I am, and this book is fairly small at 5 1/2 x 8 inches. We need to have the print and illustrations larger, darker, and easier for us seniors to see. My husband agrees with me, and he also found the smaller and lighter print difficult to see and read. That fact didn't seem to be taken into consideration with the creation and publication of this book.
