Self-reported recreational exercise combining regularity and impact is necessary to maximize bone mineral density in young adult women

摘要

Recreational physical activity in 25-year-old women in Sweden increases bone mineral density (BMD) in the trochanter by 5.5% when combining regularity and impact. Jogging and spinning were especially beneficial for hip BMD (6.4–8.5%). Women who enjoyed physical education in school maintained their higher activity level at age 25.
