Meet Amisha Singh
You’ve been told to exercise for your bones. But what exercise?
It’s understandable to feel unsure about lifting weights or starting at a gym. We begin with your health, goals and current ability, then help you choose an appropriate next step.
Why ONERO® is different
ONERO® is a supervised, evidence-based high intensity resistance and impact training program for people with osteoporosis, osteopenia or low bone mass. Developed from the LIFTMOR research at Griffith University, it focuses on bone health, strength and physical function. Your assessment helps determine whether it is appropriate for you.
You don’t need to arrive strong or experienced. Your assessment helps us determine whether ONERO® is suitable and what support you need.
Learn about the ONERO® research →Who may it suit?
People with osteoporosis, osteopenia or low bone mass who want professional guidance with exercise.
What would feeling stronger mean for you?
For many people, the goal is to feel stronger and more confident in everyday life — whether that means carrying shopping, travelling, gardening, getting up from a chair more easily or simply feeling less nervous about exercise.
Your plan starts with what matters to you. Tell us what you’d like to keep doing, get back to or feel more confident trying.
