Abstract
When examined by group assignment, 6 months of exercise had no effect on BMD among men, and reduced BMD among women. When examined by change in fitness and fatness, women who had the greatest increases in aerobic capacity and men who had the greatest increases in strength and lean mass were more likely to increase their BMD. Exercise-induced reductions in fatness did not lead to bone loss.
