Buff Bones®: Exercise Your Bones Can Count On
Buff Bones® classes at PhysioFit bring the award-winning, medically-endorsed movement system for bone and joint health to Los Altos — a safe, research-based way to exercise with osteoporosis, osteopenia, or arthritis, taught by a certified Buff Bones® instructor.
Who Buff Bones® Helps
Created by movement specialist Rebekah Rotstein after her own osteoporosis diagnosis at 28 — for capable, active people who want to protect their bones without being talked down to.
-
Osteoporosis & Osteopenia
A safe, structured way to exercise after a bone density diagnosis — built to load bones the way they strengthen.
-
Arthritis & Joint Health
Joint-friendly movement that builds support around achy joints instead of aggravating them.
-
Balance & Fall Prevention
Targeted balance and coordination work — the skills that prevent the falls that cause fractures.
-
Posture & Alignment
Techniques to align joints and improve posture so your body loads correctly, all day.
-
Strength & Toning
Whole-body conditioning that’s challenging at any level — not a seated senior workout.
-
Injury Recovery & Athletes
Useful after general injuries, and a skill-builder for athletes and dancers.
How the System Works
Buff Bones® isn’t one kind of exercise — it’s a complete system that combines four disciplines into one bone-safe workout.
-
Pilates
The foundation — controlled, precise movement that builds strength from the center out.
-
Strength Training
Progressive loading with weights and resistance, because bones strengthen when they’re loaded.
-
Functional Movement
Everyday movement patterns — so what you build in class shows up in your life.
-
Therapeutic Exercise
Rehab-informed techniques that keep every movement safe for bones and joints.
