We avoid a lot of sketchy roads that we used to ride without thinking anything about it. Luckily, both of us have pretty good balance yet.
If she’s ready to buy a fancy new bike she’s doing great. Balance is highly trainable and should not be a big problem for active people.
Yeah, the bones. I’m doing one solid day a week of weights with an emphasis on squats, deads, and other moves that load the hips and spine, and I’m trying for 150g of protein a day. I’ve put on a couple of lbs this year and would like 5. I also hope not to test the theory.
