Male Bone Density and Resistance Training...

A recent study linked resistance training to increased bone formation in men.  The findings suggest that weight-bearing exercise promotes bone formation in men. The researchers conducted a secondary analysis of previously published data that associated 12 months of resistance training or jump training to increased whole body and lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) and increased serum bone formation markers relative to resorption among physically active men with osteopenia of the hip or spine.
