RESISTANCE EXERCISE MAY BE THE MOST EFFECTIVE METHOD OF IMPROVING BONE DENSITY
When

Who
Hong AR, Kim SW
“Exercise training, especially resistance exercise, is important for the maintenance of musculoskeletal health in an aging society. RE stimulates MPS by activating a PI3K-Akt-mTORC1 signaling pathway. It also exerts a mechanical load on bones consequently leading to increase in the bone strength. Based on the available information, RE, either alone or in combination with other interventions, may be the most optimal strategy to improve the muscle and bone mass in postmenopausal women, middle-aged men, or even the older population.”

Who
LAYNE, JENNIFER E.; NELSON, MIRIAM E
“Although aerobic exercise and weight bearing physical activity are important in maintaining overall health and healthy bone, resistance training exercise seems to have a more potent impact on bone density”

Senderovich H, Tang H, Belmont S.
“A long-term regular exercise program designed to improve postural stability, mobility, and mechanical efficiency, alongside an increased vitamin D and dietary calcium intake, is most effective in preventing OP and reducing osteoporotic fractures.”
