I count myself extremely lucky at 71, my most recent DXA showed good bone strength.
So why am I posting here?

Because at least 3 generations of my Mom's family live or lived with moderate to severe osteoporosis, and it could certainly happen to me. So for the past 4 years, I have closely followed the discussions about bone health on Connect, and learned I might not be doing enough to stay healthy.

Now, I am working with my PCP to make sure I am getting effective calcium. I am eating more protein, walking more and trying to figure out what weight/resistance training might work for me. In order to protect my arthritic hands, wrists and elbows, lifting free weights, or even using most machines is not possible.
Suggestions, anyone?
Sue
