Bone mineral density in adolescent female athletes: relationship to exercise type and muscle strength

Abstract: We conclude that running, a weight bearing exercise, is associated with larger site-specific BMD than swimming or cycling, that the generalized anatomical distribution of loads in triathlon appears not to significantly enhance total body BMD status, and that knee extension strength is only a weak correlate and independent predictor of BMD in adolescent females.

“…All these results support the idea that sports associated with an adequate body weight and good muscular development stimulate growth and skeletal mineralisation (Maggioni, 1998;Duncan et al, 2002), while those associated with extremely low body weight and insufficient energy intake, the case of the present dancers, lead to poorer bone mineralisation (Sundgot-Borgen, 1998;Valentino et al, 2001).…”

“…The beneficial effects of certain sports on bone mineralisation has been reported by several authors (Nickols-Richardson et al , 2000; Pettersson et al, 2000, Proctor et al, 2002, and physical activity is considered to have a positive influence on bone density by many others (Uusi-Rasi et al, 1997; Duncan et al, 2002).…”

“…Adicionalmente, foi observado que os atletas da natação e ciclismo tinham a DMO menor comparada com a dos de esportes de impacto, porém, não diferiram significativamente em relação aos não atletas. achados similares aos de outros estudos (13)(14)(15) . Em contraste, Tsukahara et al (16) sugerem que a participação em esportes aquáticos é um fator importante na prevenção da perda de material ósseo.…”

“…Duncan et al (2002) reported that running and weight-bearing exercise were related to higher BMD than swimming and cycling, and knee extension strength was correlated with BMD in adolescent females. Similarly, Rubin and Lanyon (1984) also mentioned that resistive training can increase bone health, muscular strength and muscle mass with high stress.…”
