BioDensity
Studies show BioDensity can build strength, increase bone density, improve functional movement, reduce cardiac risk and improve Type 2 diabetes*.
These health gains can lead to an improved quality of life and reduced health care costs while providing a solution for those who are not able or willing to commit to a typical exercise regimen.
What is BioDensity?
In medical research, biodensity refers to the density of biological structures within tissues or organs of the body. For example, bone density refers to the concentration of mineralized tissue within bones, which is crucial for understanding bone health and diagnosing conditions like osteoporosis.
BioDensity promotes increased bone density and muscle strength and reduces blood glucose levels with advanced exercise-based therapy. It has been shown to improve a number of medical conditions and health concerns and is a safe and effective health and wellness product.

Benefits of BioDensity
Bone Density Improvement: Isometric exercises, like those performed during BioDensity sessions, have been shown to stimulate bone formation and improve bone density. A study published in the Journal of Bone and Mineral Research found that isometric exercises increased bone mineral density in postmenopausal women, particularly in the hip and spine, which are common sites for osteoporotic fractures.
Muscle Strength Gain:
Isometric training has been shown to effectively increase muscle strength. A meta-analysis published in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research found that isometric training produced significant improvements in maximal voluntary contraction strength across various muscle groups.
Joint Safety:
Isometric exercises performed with BioDensity equipment can be beneficial for individuals with joint issues or limitations, as they do not involve joint movement or impact. This can reduce the risk of injury compared to traditional resistance training methods that involve dynamic movements.
Suitability for Older Adults: BioDensity may be particularly beneficial for older adults looking to improve bone health and functional fitness and improving Type 2 Diabetes. A pilot study published in the Journal of Aging and Physical Activity found that isometric exercise training improved functional performance and reduced the risk of falls in older adults.

Denise, 70
"My one year DEXA results showed that 7% improvement in spine and 5% improvement in the femur. bioDensity worked for me."
Karen, 65
“I was diagnosed with osteopenia about 12 years ago and had no idea of the meaning of the condition. I was merely told that I should exercise more. I had never enjoyed the gym, nor did I ever exercise consistently in my life, so finding something I enjoyed was a real revelation."
Vamsi, 48
"Steven is a powerhouse! If you’re looking to increase your energy, Steven will blow your mind. Steven walks his talk and he is someone who is so dedicated. I highly recommend working with him.”
Frequently Asked Questions
Answers To Commonly Questions
What should I wear? Is there special equipment required?
We suggest flat shoes and something comfortable. Otherwise dress like you're going to meet a friend. Workout clothes or special equipment is not required.
Will I be sore after my session?
The worst soreness we hear about is usually after the first session and the most common feedback is mild. The body responds to its conditioning so each session thereafter the body will feel less and less sore.
Is it safe if I have osteoporosis?
Yes, many people with a bone density T-score of -3 or lower on the DEXA scan reported benefits like increase in BMD, improved strength, balance, and posture plus more energy, and reduced pain.
How long before I see results?
Clients report reduced joint and back pain within 1-12 sessions. Because of the metabolic speed of bone, it may take 12-24 months to see substantial results in bone density. Building muscle gives more energy and stamina, less pain, and clothes can be fitting differently in 2-3 weeks.
