How does exercising improve bone health?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bone density : Weight bearing exercise helps increase your bone density up until a certain age (usually your mid 30s) when your bone density reaches a maximum. After this age, weight bearing exercise can slow the decline in bone density and help prevent or slow the development of osteoporosis.
