運動訓練對預防骨質疏鬆症之探討

科技的進步為人類帶來許多便利，但也使人們身體勞動機會大幅減少，加上平均壽命的增加，許多與不運動或老化有關的病症更是對中老年人及停經後的婦女造成生活上相當大的困擾，人體的骨骼狀況對健康影響重大，較佳的骨質密度可避免因骨質疏鬆症引起的骨折，進而保護生命安全。本文主要探討運動訓練對骨質疏鬆症的相關影響，規律而持續的運動能避免骨質流失，甚至可以增加骨骼中礦物質的含量，提高骨骼強度，預防骨質疏鬆症。維持適當的運動可以增進肌力及關節柔軟性並改善身體的協調能力。對於骨質密度的影響與運動方式有關，不同的運動對於肢體的負重刺激不同，對骨質產生的效果也不一致，運動時活動較多的肢體骨質密度較高。

Technological development provides convenience in human life but decreases the opportunity of conducting exercising. Compared with the past, nowadays, mankind has a higher life expectancy. However, the lack of sufficient exercise facilitates the development of age-related disorders towards elderly people and postmenopausal women. Human skeleton impacts health condition significantly. For instance, a better status of bone density can prevent fractures caused by osteoporosis. The paper mainly discusses the impact of exercise training related to osteoporosis. Regular physical activity can prevent bone loss and even increase bone mineral content, improve bone strength, and as a result prevent osteoporosis. Appropriate exercise can also improve muscle strength and joint flexibility and improve body coordination. Bone mineral density can be related to the form of physical activity conducted. Various sports putting the focus on weight training result in differential impact on bone. the effect on bone mass can be determined as inconsistent. People engaged in more physical activity tend to have a higher bone resistance.
