You’ve got to put stress on your skeletal structure with weight bearing exercise. I do strength training 2x per week….Leg presses, chins, dips, lumbar extension, and 4-way neck. Takes about 20 minutes and works everything..or at least feels like it does.

Cross train with a jump rope. That’s solid for bone density.

Cheers.

Fortunately the vast majority of cyclists in the world don’t ride racing bikes with razor thin saddles so this can hardly be worrisome for the masses.

Get a dog and walk it twice a day. Walking is great for bone density and adopting an dog in need is great for that dog.

Of course then there’s the temptation to bike while the dog runs…
