Hi All - thanks for the links and tips. I've just started reading 'Osteoporosis, the silent epidemic' by Marilyn Glenville and already find it very interesting reading.
Just came across a site (below) which I haven't finished reading yet but may have some useful information that some may be interested in:

Thanks Glenys, I looked at the slide show and article on the Mayo Clinic site. Their exercises remind me of some of those in the book 'Exercises for Osteoporosis' by Dianne Daniels. I started out with those exercises when I was very first diagnosed with osteoporosis, nearly two and a half years ago, and they were good, especially good for at home. I then moved on to a gym and Slow Burn weight lifting 
all the best,
Anne
I have spent ages trying to find the slide show - please can you give me foolproof instructions on how to find it?
Thank you.
