The relationship between insulin-like growth factor-1 and bone mineral density in osteopenic men following a 12-month osteogenic exercise intervention
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
INTRODUCTION: Plyometric [PLY] and resistance training [RT] have been successfully used to improve BMD in both men and women. Often, the hormonal response to exercise training is an important mediator of exercise-induced ...
The effects of plyometrics or resistance-training on markers of bone turnover and hormones in men
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Weight-bearing exercise positively affects bone mineral density (BMD) and bone strength, presumably by altering the balance between bone formation and resorption. The purpose of the present study was to determine the acute ...
The antioxidative effects of exercise training-and diet-induced weight loss
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Obesity and insulin resistance (IR) increase the risk for coronary heart disease (CHD); however, much of this risk is not attributable to traditional ...
Six months of resistance training or plyometrics exercise positively affects bone mineral density and bone turnover marker ratios in men with osteopenia
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
Weight-bearing exercise that is high-impact and dynamic positively affects bone mineral density (BMD), and regular participation in this type of activity is recommended to preserve bone health in adults. However, there are ...
