Strong Bones Program
Stronger Bones for Life: Exercise for Osteoporosis in Booragoon
If you’ve been told you have osteopenia or osteoporosis, are concerned about bone loss, or simply want to stay active, strong, and independent as you age, our Strong Bones Program is designed for you. It’s for those who are ready to do more than “wait and see” — and instead take confident, proven steps to build stronger bones, better balance, and real resilience.
Let’s be clear: this is not a generic over-50s class, a gentle yoga session, or an online osteoporosis webinar. This is a targeted strength, balance, and impact training program, supervised by expert physiotherapists and exercise physiologists, tailored specifically to support your bone health and prevent future fractures.
We go beyond just exercise — we support you with education, ongoing assessments, and a supportive team that understands the challenges (and power) of aging well.
WE’RE NOT YOUR AVERAGE BONE HEALTH PROGRAM
Feel a bit unsure about lifting weights with low bone density? You’re not alone — most of our members felt the same way at first.
That’s why we start with a 1-on-1 assessment, take time to understand your health history, and design your training to fit your exact needs and confidence level. You’ll be coached, encouraged, and supported every step of the way.
STRONG BONES PROGRAM - Build Bone Density. Improve Balance. Prevent Fractures.

Jess Plain
The trainers are all very friendly and supportive. Every individual has their own plan and the coaches are there to support you and ensure you have the right technique. It’s the first gym I’ve been to where this really is a big focus. It helps that the class sizes are small meaning a coach is always available to help. Definitely doing heaver and more focused exercises than if I were left to my own devices. Would highly recommend.
