Recent Bone Density Research
ByWhen you hear of the need for weight lifting to increase bone density, do you imagine something like the Greek athletes in the picture at right?
You will probably be relieved to read the following quote from a post December 4th, 2009 on the blog of: Not Just A Man’s World–
“I originally started lifting weights to build up some bone density, so I’ve been fascinated to see that there have been several bone density studies carried out, published, or reviewed recently. Several of these have also piqued my interest because they have focussed on studies done in older men and women, especially those in their sixties. This is the population where osteopenia and osteoporosis start to reveal themselves.
“This is also the category that my mother fits into. My mother has undergone two hip replacements this year and has since been focusing hard on getting her muscles and joints working again at their best so that she can get back to doing the things she enjoys and enabling her to get the most out of life with minimal further damage to her body. We have been arming her with various mobility, stability and strength exercises recently and I am immensely proud of her determination and progress.
I have included this post to help my readers realize that weight lifting to increase bone density does not need to wait until after hip replacement. Rather, increasing bone density earlier may prevent hip replacement.
