(H) Axial Bone Osteogenic Loading Resistance Therapy Showing BMD and Functional Bone Performance Musculoskeletal Adaptations Over 24 weeks with Postmenopausal Female Subjects.
Both osteoporotic and osteopenic female subjects improved BMD following 24 weeks of training.
bioDensity - A Novel Resistance Training Approach and Learning Effects in 1685 Males and 2689 Females.
The force production curve seen with traditional resistance training is similar with the force production curve seen with bioDensity, although the forces produced with bioDensity were greater.
Effects of bioDensity Training and Power Plate Whole Body Vibration on Strength, Balance, and Functional Independence in Older Adults.
Subjects 85-93 years old showed significant improvement using Power Plate and bioDensity in walking speed, walking distance, balance, standing, sitting, walking up stairs and down stairs – all activities of daily living. Strength increased 22-51%
The impact on glycemic control through progressive resistance training with bioDensity in Chinese elderly patients with type 2 diabetes.
The study demonstrated that bioDensity was an excellent additional therapeutic intervention, to the usual treatment for Type 2 Diabetes, in patients with elevated Hemoglobin A1c. Furthermore, bioDensity had a positive impact on the Cardiac Risk Profile (Cholesterol, LDL and HDL) regardless of the A1C levels.
Functional Bone Performance Measurements and Adaptations Using Novel Self APPLIED Bone Loading Exercise Apparatus.
Subjects required approximately 3-9 times body weight loading to generate changes in bone mineral density
Effects of 12 Weeks of bioDensity Training on Bone Mineral Density and Lean Muscle Quantity in Healthy Osteogenic and Osteoporosis Adults.
Significant improvements were documented in diastolic BP, VO2, shuttle run, push-ups, sit-ups and hamstring flexibility, however 12 weeks was insufficient time to document changes in bone mineral density.
New Apparatus Provides Compression Forces on Bone Resulting in Osteoblastic Activity.
Subjects were 15 females ranging in age from 56-84 who had completed at least 48 out of 52 bioDensity sessions in a year. Eleven of the subjects demonstrated significant improvement in their DEXA values, 2 had no change and 2 had further decreases in BMD.
