What did studies of dynamic multicomponent exercise find?

3

Studies of dynamic multicomponent exercise measured 3 outcomes: one-leg standing balance, gait speed and lumbar spine BMD.

One-leg standing balance

upin humans1

1 study

  1. Dynamic multicomponent exercise improves one-leg standing balance in humans (compared to OsteoStrong; osteopenia or osteoporosis) (right leg +13.1% vs. -2.1%, p = 0.001; left leg +13.3% vs. -2.4%, p = 0.001).

    “isometric trunk extension (+ 27.6% vs. +4.4%, p = 0.007), and one-leg standing balance (right leg: +13.1% vs. -2.1%, p = 0.001; left leg:+13.3% vs. -2.4%, p = 0.001) compared to OS”

Lumbar spine BMD

1 study

  1. Dynamic multicomponent exercise increases lumbar spine BMD in humans (osteopenia or osteoporosis) (+0.8%, p = 0.016).
