  • Kinetics and kinematics of prepubertal children participating in osteogenic physical activity

    Creator:
    Bauer, Jeremy
    Abstract:
    Introduction: Recent reports in exercise related bone research have shown increased bone mineral content (BMC) at the femoral neck for prepubescent children participating in exercise programs consisting of repeated drop landings from a height of 61 cm. Increases in BMC from this type of exercise are believed to be the...

  • Defining intensity of skeletal loading in children

    Creator:
    Bauer, Jeremy J.
    Abstract:
    While exercise can be prescribed for improving cardiovascular and muscle health, no prescription exists for increasing bone mass. Because bone deformation rate has been identified as an important variable related to osteogenesis, estimates of skeletal loading during human activities likely characterize the associated osteogenic stimulus. However, estimates of body segment...
