To examine the effects of bone mineral density, body composition, and isokinetic strength after 24 weeks of exercise intervention with three different exercise intensities and mode of exercises in middle-aged and elder adults. Methods: 53 healthy volunteers aged 51-70 years were randomly assigned to 4 groups after a pre-maximum strength test (control group, CG, n=13, 60.8 ± 2.9 years;moderate-load resistance group, MRG, n=14, 62.0 ± 5.4years;high-load resistance group, HRG, n=13, 62.3±3.6 years;multi-component exercise group, MEG, n=13, 62.2 ± 4.7 years ). Exercise groups performed 75 minutes of progressive training program of 2 days per week for 24 weeks. Exercises included of total body workout using 9 different resistance training machines, 2 sets of 50%of 1RM (13-15 reps ) for MRG and 2 sets of 80% of 1 RM (8-10 reps) for HRG. MEG performed 1 set of 50 % of 1 RM (13-15 reps) of resistance training and 30 minutes of aerobic exercise. CG was asked to maintain life style as usual without additional exercise or physical activity. The bone mineral density (BMD), muscle mass, and isokinetic strength of upper and lower limbs were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and Biodex System 4 PRO before and after training (0/25 weeks). Results: After 24 weeks, the BMD of lumbar spine had decreased 1.7% and decreased of average of 0.85% in CG. The exercise groups had also shown dissimilar adaptation according to different part of body compared to different groups. The lumbar spine for the MEG had increased significantly than the MRG and CG (p < .05). MRG had shown increased in BMD in femoral neck, but arm lumbar and total body were significantly lower than the HRG. The BMD of HRG had increased (+0.2~ +1.5%) for all body parts;arm, lumbar spine and total body were significantly higher than the MRG and CG (p < .05). Muscle mass in exercise group (+1.7~2.8%) improved arm lean mass more than CG (-0.7~1.3%) (p < .05). Triceps strength had increased 15.5~26.1% (p < .05) and hamstring strength had shown significantly increased of 43.4~56.9% than CG. Conclusion: After 24 weeks of training, The high-load resistance training program has positive effects on BMD in middle-aged and elder adults. However, there were similar responded for muscle mass between the three exercise programs. The isokinetic strength benefited greatly by resistance training. |
