Overview

Systematic review finds physical activity improves bone density in postmenopausal women, highlighting risks of detraining.

Key Points

  • Regular physical activity significantly improves bone mineral density in postmenopausal women, especially in key areas like the lumbar spine.
  • Evidence from three included studies indicated that structured training sessions of 2–5 per week are effective in managing bone health.
  • Cessation of exercise leads to a gradual decline in the benefits achieved, emphasizing the need for ongoing physical activity.
  • Long-term engagement in exercise is crucial for preventing osteoporosis progression in postmenopausal women.
