Summary:
Data supporting the notion that exercise during growth, and then especially during the pre- and early pubertal period, increase bone mineral density (BMD) and maybe also bone size, both independently providing bone strength, are strong. This notion is supported in cross-sectional population based studies, in case-control studies, in prospective cohort studies and in short term randomised controlled trials. The prospective controlled paediatric osteoporosis prevention study (POP) increases our knowledge when reporting that an exercise intervention program in pre-pubertal children, reach benefits in both BMD and bone size even in a long-term perspective. That is, data with a higher level of evidence within the evidence based system is gathering that support the view that increased physical activity during growth probably could increase peak bone mass and in a longer perspective perhaps also decrease the prevalence of osteoporosis.
