“…Specifically, the most successful exercise programs to improve bone strength appear to be those that incorporate a diverse range of weight-bearing activities (e.g., skipping, dancing, jumping, and hopping) [3,4] ranging in magnitude from three to nine times body weight and which are performed three to five times per week, preferably on a daily basis, for 10-45 minutes per session [5,6].…”

SUMMARYBackground. Osteoporosis is a multifactorial progressive skeletal disorder characterized by reduced bone mass. Exercise is widely recommended to reduce osteoporosis, falls and related fragility fractures. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of land exercise (LE) and aquatic exercise (AE) on physical function and bone mineral density (BMD).Material and methods. Fifty-eight postmenopausal women, aged 50-70 years, diagnosed with osteoporosis according to BMD measures, enrolled in this study. The subjects were randomly assigned to either the intervention group (LE group) or the control group (AE group). Physical function and BMD were assessed in all subjects in both groups before and after 10 months of intervention. Muscle strength, flexibility, balance, gait time and pain were measured to assess physical function. Bone mineral density at the lumbar spine was measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA).Results. There were no significant differences between the two groups in the baseline anthropometric data. The two groups were similar with respect to age, weight, height, and body mass index (p>0.05). After the exercise program, muscle strength, flexibility, gait time, pain, and bone density (p<0.001) improved significantly with LE compared to AE. There was no significant difference between the two groups with regard to balance at the 10-month follow-up.Conclusion. Significant improvements in physical function and BMD suggest that LE is a possible alternative for postmenopausal women with OP.

“…Estos resultados difieren de otros estudios que han comunicado sobre el poco efecto de los programas de ejercicios sobre la masa ósea en mujeres pre y posmenopáusicas (12). No obstante, los hallazgos encontrados coinciden con los resultados de otros meta-análisis que confirman que el ejercicio físico tiene un efecto positivo en el incremento de la densidad mineral ósea (22).…”

“…A la luz de los resultados aquí encontrados, este tipo de ejercicio parece ser un factor importante para la prevención de la osteoporosis y la reducción del riesgo de fractura. Ya que además de mejorar la fuerza muscular, mejora el equilibrio y el ánimo en general (12).…”

“…21,46 Previous studies have reported that RT is able to prevent bone demineralization in older women. 47,48 For instance, the study by de Matos, et al 48 reported that 12 weeks of weight training, among postmenopausal women with osteoporosis or osteopenia, did not significantly improve BMD (1.17%) at the lumbar spine in the exercise group (n=30). However, the control group (n=29) showed a significant loss in the spine BMD (2.26%).…”

CitationArce-Esquivel AA, Ballard JE. Effects of resistance training on bone and muscle mass in older women: a review. Sport Exerc Med Open J. ABSTRACTAging is associated with declines of different physiological systems. These reductions are directly related to loss of mobility in older individuals, reducing the independence and quality of life for this population. Regular physical activity (e.g, resistance training, RT), has been shown to decrease mortality and age-related morbidity in older adults, including women. A fracture is closely related to the typical decline in bone mass (i.e, osteoporosis) especially in postmenopausal women. In fact, up to 30% of postmenopausal females have osteoporosis. In postmenopausal women the rate of bone mineral density loss progressively increases with age. In addition, decreases in muscle tissue (i.e, sarcopneia) may begin to occur before the fourth decade and gradually worsens through the later stages of adulthood. Sarcopenia, is characterized by low muscle mass, low muscle strength, and low physical performance, which can lead to disability, risk of falls and fractures, and death. Further, sarcopenia occurs to a greater degree in older women than men. Menopause is characterized by important changes in hormonal status and these changes have a significant effect on body composition (i.e, bone mass density, muscle mass, and body fat). Importantly, RT is effective in increasing bone and muscle mass and improving measurements of physical performance. Thus, this review is intended to summarize the effects of RT on bone and muscle mass in older postmenopausal women.
