Magnitude and rate of mechanical loading of a variety of exercise modes
Abstract
This study evaluated impulse (I), peak ground reaction forces (GRF), and the rate of force development (RFD) of a variety of exercise modes for the purpose of estimating the magnitude and rate of mechanical loading as a measure of osteogenic potential. Twenty-three subjects participated in this study (mean +/- SD, age 21.2 +/- 1.4 years; body mass 77.8 +/- 16.2 kg). Kinetic data were obtained via a force platform for the test exercises modes, which included walking, jogging, depth jumps, loaded jump squats, and the back squat. Repeated measures analysis of variance revealed significant main effects for I, GRF, and RFD (p < or = 0.001). Bonferroni-adjusted post hoc analyses demonstrated that I and GRF were different between each exercise mode and that RFD was different between all exercise modes except for jogging and the back squat. The depth jump demonstrated the highest GRF and RFD, while the back squat produced the highest I. The jump squat produced the second highest value for all the variables assessed. Thus, the depth jump, jump squat, and back squat appear to offer the greatest potential as osteogenic stimuli and a mixed mode training strategy including exercises such as these is recommended. These results suggest that walking and jogging may have less osteogenic potential.

Jumps induce high impact forces and internal muscle forces necessary for bone deformation and thus provide an osteo- and muscle-protective stimulus.
“Furthermore, jumps induce high impact forces and internal muscle forces that are necessary for the deformation of bone and thus provide an osteo- and muscle-protective stimulus (Rittweger et al., 2000; Ebben et al., 2010).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
