I too am osteoporotic and quit osteo drugs due to experiencing side effects from bisphosphonates. I also found another site where NASA states high-impact exercise such as jumping seemed to be a solution - am not sure how the astronauts perform effective jumps in weightlessness. Here's the info and the link:
https://www.space.com/astronaut-bone-loss-jumping-exercise-study
"Jumping provides short bouts of high-impact, dynamic loads that promote osteogenesis [bone growth]," the researchers wrote, while adding that "neither running, cycling, squats, nor heel raise volume were associated with bone recovery." Adding jumping exercise routines to astronauts' existing exercise regimens may prevent bone loss and actually reduce the amount of exercise time needed each day, the authors suggest."

I have 3.8 osteo on a 4 scale being the worst and was told no running, jumping, etc. Dr said if I just Sat down hard I could fracture my spine. I was so stressed at first, but I'm taking Fosamax unwillingly because of things I'd read. I have to start with the cheapest one and work up to some better drugs per Medicare rules. Has anyone had good results with Fosamax. I have to wait two years for another scan to see if it's working.
