If you don't like weights, which I don't, yoga's a good way to increase strength and help ward off the osteopenia. It even gets you panting -- and not because of the "centered" women in tight outfits. My doc recommended it after a bone scan revealed nothing but sawdust. I think some of the breathing techniques are helpful in our situation as well. Granted, during the sessions I'm generally too conscious of my breathing quirks to even fake inner peace, but I'm convinced I'm in better shape with fewer aches and pains. I guess that's a pretty peaceful feeling.Q
