The following article details two studies about osteoporosis exercises, the first shows that walking or cycling alone are not enough to build bone mass, the second outlines the best proven osteoporosis exercises. In order to better understand how aerobic exercise effects bone mineral density, a team of researchers from the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Harvard Medical School, Yale School of Medicine and the University of Washington conducted a year-long study on the effect of aerobic exercise on bone mineral density.

The randomized controlled study involved postmenopausal women from the ages of 50 to 75 who were sedentary and either overweight or obese. None of the women had osteopenia or osteoporosis and none were taking hormone replacement therapy. Half of the women were assigned to the exercise group and the other half to a control group. The exercise prescription consisted of 45 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise, either walking or bicycling, while maintaining an average heart rate of percent of maximal heart rate.

Those in the exercise group gradually worked up to this level by week 8 and maintained this routine five days a week for 12 months. One some days the women exercised at home while on other days they were supervised in a gym where they used either a treadmill or stationary bike. The women in the control group attended one minute stretching session per week.

After one year, none of the women experienced any improvements or worsening in bone mineral density. Their total body bone mineral density was not substantially affected by the aerobic exercise and remained about the same as when they started.
