Hi , weight training exercises combined with body weight exercises offer the stress to increase muscle density. You can add stretch and mobility exercises. I am happy that you are on the right path.
Try to avoid explosive exercises like severe jumps to avoid fractures.
But , do not fall into the trap of going overboard with exercises. 3 days of weight training per week is sufficient. Minimal exercises on other days.
