Walking and running have been found to increase hip bone mass in postmenopausal women. However, the optimal speed to trigger osteogenesis is still under debate because the exact loading during different speeds is poorly characterized. Moreover, age related differences in gait kinematics/kinetics can potentially result in differences in peak hip loading, making extrapolation of results based on young...
Summary Physical activity benefits the skeleton, but there is contrasting evidence regarding whether benefits differ at different stages of growth. The current study demonstrates that physical activity should be encouraged at the earliest age possible and be continued into early adulthood to gain most skeletal benefits. Introduction The current study explored physical activity-induced bone adaptation...
Athletes participating in unilateral dominant sports are useful models for investigating skeletal responses to mechanical loading as they provide controlled evidence in the absence of completing a randomized controlled trial. Throwing athletes may be an additional model for this purpose as they overload their dominant upper extremity enabling the contralateral side to act as an internal control and...
A dose-response relationship has been shown between loading frequency and cortical bone adaptation for frequencies of up to 10 Hz, and is presumed to persist with further increases in frequency. Studies herein aimed to investigate cortical bone adaptation to loading frequencies of 1, 5, 10, 20 and 30 Hz. Two studies were performed in adult C57BL/6 mice using the ulna axial compression-loading model...
