Physical activity reduces bone loss in the distal forearm in post-menopausal women - a 25-year prospective study.
Intervention studies have shown that high-intensity training programs with duration of 1-3 years can influence bone mass in post-menopausal women. We wanted to investigate whether moderate physical activity could be associated with reduced post-menopausal bone loss also in the long-term perspective. We evaluated changes in bone mass and bone structure by repeated single-photon absorptiometry measu
