Bone mass is a key determinant of fracture risk. Maximizing bone mineral mass during
childhood and adolescence may contribute to fracture risk reduction during adolescence and …

Objectives: To compare the effectiveness of group resistance and agility‐training programs
in reducing fall risk in community‐dwelling older women with low bone mass. Design: A …

… Nishiyama KK, Macdonald HM, Moore SA, Fung T, Boyd SK, McKay HA. Cortical porosity is
higher in boys compared with girls at the distal radius and distal tibia during pubertal growth: …

The primary purpose of this study was to estimate the magnitude and variability of peak
calcium accretion rates in the skeletons of healthy white adolescents. Total‐body bone mineral …

Objective Implementation science is an emerging area in physical activity (PA) research.
We sought to establish the current state of the evidence related to implementation of school-…

Objectives: To examine the effects of a community‐based group exercise program for older
individuals with chronic stroke. Design: Prospective, single‐blind, randomized, controlled …

Objective. Childhood weight-bearing physical activity is recognized as an important determinant
of peak bone mass, and physical activity intervention may represent a feasible strategy …

Promoting physical activity has become a priority because of its role in preventing childhood
obesity and chronic disease. Ecological approaches that recognise the interaction between …

Background: Exercise programs improve balance, strength and agility in elderly people and
thus may prevent falls. However, specific exercise programs that might be widely used in the …

Background: Of the few exercise intervention studies focusing on pediatric populations, none
have confined the intervention to the scheduled physical education curriculum. Objective: …
