Osteoporosis International, 10/06/09
Waltman NL et al. – Strength/weight training exercises may prevent loss of BMD in postmenopausal BCS at risk for bone loss.
Methods- Postmenopausal BCS (223) randomly assigned to exercise plus medication or medication only groups
- Both groups received 24 mos of 1,200 mg of calcium and 400 IU of vitamin D daily and 35 mg of risedronate weekly
- Exercise group additionally had ST exercises twice weekly
- After 24 months, women who took medications without exercising had significant improvements in BMD at total hip and spine and significant decreases in Alkphase B and serum NTx
- Women who also exercised had additional increases in BMD at femoral neck , total hip , spine , total radius , and additional decreases in Alkphase B and Serum NTx
- Additional changes in BMD and bone turnover with exercise not significant
- Subjects who were ≥ 50% adherent to exercise were less likely to lose BMD at the total hip and femoral neck
