PT Sasha Recommends 4 Home Strength Moves as 1 in 2 UK Women Over 50 Face Fractures

Summary
Four basic movements—squat, incline push-up, hip hinge and row—are the only exercises women need to start building strength at home, PT Sasha says.
Sasha targets women in menopause and perimenopause, arguing strength training can raise bone density, preserve independence and cut osteoporosis risk later in life.
One in two UK women over 50 will suffer a fracture in their lifetime, she says, making bone-loading exercise a priority even without a gym.
Kitchen-friendly setups—a chair, countertop, dumbbells or even two small water bottles—can support the routine, which uses compound movements to train multiple muscle groups at once.
