If there is a question of osteoporosis or even osteopenia at your age, it would be prudent to obtain a rheumatological consultation and likely undergo a DEXA scan. Walking is a terrific exercise but the value is accrued over the years and will provide solely minor benefit on its own if osteoporosis is already present.
