Light exercise and 10K daily steps are great for overall health. But, for offsetting the side-effects of hormone therapy requires resistance-training (weightlifting, TRX, etc). It’s important to start rigorous resistance-training well before starting hormone therapy; if you wait until side-effects are already occurring, you’re already way behind.

When I was on Eligard (my testosterone dropped as low as 3.0, then remained in the upper-single and lower double-digits), I lifted weights daily, jogged every other day (and ran in 5K races), swam laps on alternating days), and swam in my state’s Senior Olympics that year. Yes, staying very active while on hormone therapy is quite doable.
