@mpc1 thanks for your input. I keep seeing that free weights are best but it seems like any muscle gain would help bones. I’ll check out Bone IQ app. Thanks again.

You can read about the LIFTMOR trials to see direct research on the need to do heavy-for-you weight training to get your bones into action.

Here is also one of many videos available on YouTube about this subject:
