Good morning Joey 😊 I was diagnosed with osteoporosis a couple of weeks ago, and have been taking a calcium + d supplement. My Mother had osteoporosis, so I know it is hereditary.

I told the doctor that I do resistance training, strength training, with bands, dumbbells and body weight everyday, and have been doing so for almost 3 years. He said to definitely continue with that, but to add the supplementation, and will do another bone density scan in 12 to 18 months.

My question to you is this, are there any specific exercises that I should be adding to help strengthen the bones of my hips? The weakness is in the femoral neck, the right side is worse than the left.

Any insight you can give me is much appreciated.

Thank you
