Osteoarthritis (degenerative joint disease) and osteoporosis (weak and fragile bones) are common conditions, particularly in women after menopause, and become even more common as we get older. Aging is also associated with sarcopenia, the progressive loss of muscle strength and mass with age. In this three-arm study, the effect of resistance exercise programs with different parameters (such as velocity and load) on various outcomes, including structural changes (bone mineral density, cartilage composition, muscle size), physical function, and biomarkers will be compared.
