Hi, @kars, welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I edited the title of your discussion to "Exercises for Long-term Health After Knee & Hip Replacements" to be a bit more specific for other members to join the conversation.

You may also noticed I moved your discussion to the Joint Replacements - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/joint-replacements/ group as well. I'd like to invite @naturegirl5, @johnbishop, @dixiedog, and @jojo58 to this discussion to share some of their experiences with joint replacement and the recovery process.

@kars, many of the exercises discussed in previous joint replacement conversations are centered around post-op recovery. If you are comfortable sharing, how far out are you from your replacements? Are you looking to get your joints more functional, or for exercises that are joint appropriate but for overall health, not rehab? I also noticed you had posted your conversation in the Osteoporosis group, were your joint issues a result of osteoporosis?
