I had both hips replaced at the same time in 2011 at age 56, (front entry method). Currently, age 64, I cycle 8 to 10 miles almost every day, do 40 minutes on an indoor trainer on bad weather days, play pickleball 2 or 3 times a week, and alternate weight training with cardio at a local club. NO PAIN EVER, (at least not from the hips). I consider myself lucky to have had such a successful outcome.
