Summary
One group will receive today's standard rehabilitation program following hip fracture surgery. The intervention group will have maximal strength training incorporated in their program. It consists of 3 training sessions per week for 8 weeks, where 4-5 repetitions over 4 sets for leg press and abduction resistance exercise at \~85% of maximal strength is carried out. Muscle strength, balance and bone density will be compared between the groups following the 8-week rehabilitation period. The feasibility of the intervention for the patient group will be evaluated based on compliance with training program and possible adverse events related to the operated hip.
