Effect of exercise on bone mineral density and lean mass in postmenopausal women
Article Abstract:
A random study was conducted to find the effects of physical activity on bone mineral density, bone mineral content, and lean mass in postmenopausal, overweight/obese women. The results suggested that a yearlong moderate-intensity exercise does not affect total body bone mineral density, bone mineral content or lean mass in overweight/obese postmenopausal women.
