Download the journal articleIndividual outcomes vary. We confirm clinical suitability through an Exercise Physiology assessment, and you should consult your primary care provider to understand treatment options.
Is it safe for me?
It is natural to feel uncertain about higher-intensity training with an osteoporosis or osteopenia diagnosis. We start with an Exercise Physiology assessment so your history, scan or referral context, co-existing conditions and confidence can be checked before any class step.
Every new participant starts by asking about a 1:1 Exercise Physiology assessment, not by jumping straight into a group session.
Onero is delivered under clinical supervision by appropriately trained health professionals, with loads and progressions monitored.
Your clinician reviews the starting point and adjusts the pathway to suit your ability, history and confidence as you improve.
