I've just discovered your channel and am so glad I did! I have osteoporosis and think your teaching will be so beneficial so I'll start from oldest to newest videos. Thank you.

I have osteoporosis and appreciated knowing the proper way to lift things, but the only problem is that I have a left knee that is bone on bone and is hard to put weight on that knee to bend down so my spine can stay in a neutral position.

[@trishsalzl944]

[@franandjerome919]

@@margaretmartinpt These no longer show on the link..maybe an older model. Do you know which ones they now sell that would be similar. I was looking at something with a bit more weight than the Sport 24. Thank you!

Wouldn't you get the technique perfected first with lighter weights ?
