Just returned from Fukuoka Japan attending the #ISHA2025 Scientific Meeting with great colleagues.
I presented results from the Hip Booster trial, showing that exercise booster sessions are not effective for maintaining effects of exercise in hip OA.

Exercise generally does not increase the breakdown of joints affected by osteoarthritis. However, this has not yet been studied specifically in hip osteoarthritis. Read more – and if you have hip osteoarthritis, you may participate in a scientific study:

Just published findings in @oacjournal.bsky.social from 1 year follow-up of the Hipbooster RCT, showing that in hip osteoarthritis, 4 additional group exercise sessions were ineffective for improving long-term effects of an initial 3-month intervention.

Thrilled about engagement at our symposium #ExerciseasMedicine at Aarhus University last week. The overall take-away message for me is how exercise impacts trajectories for healthy ageing and for those who live with disease. There are still challenges, one being how to ensure long-term engagement.

Still spots left on the 5th of March for an exciting afternoon at Aarhus University exploring Exercise as Medicine for healthy ageing and disease prevention. Register here (free of charge):
