An historical bone loading questionnaire that assesses loads applied to the skeleton using bone loading units and is moderately associated with femoral neck aBMD can be reliably assessed and can help to identify women with low femoral necks prior to menopause.

Gymnasts exhibited higher femoral neck BMD than runners and controls as well as a later age at menarche and a slightly higher (nonsignificant) prevalence of oligo‐and amenorrhea; runners exhibited lower BMD values compared with gymnasts despite similar current and historical menstrual cycle patterns.
Weighted vest exercise improves indices of fall risk in older women.
Lower body exercise, using a weighted vest for resistance, provides an effective means of improving key indices of falls in postmenopausal women.

PAVS may be a valid tool for identifying primary care patients who need counseling about physical activity and should be assessed further for agreement with repeated objective measures of physical activity in the patient population.

Results show that female winter sport athletes have greater aBMD compared with controls of similar age and BMI, and the hypothesis that the loading characteristics of intense winter sport participation have osteogenic potential is supported.

Novel findings of maximal, area under the curve and first moment of the area measures of intra-abdominal pressure are reflected, which may have clinical relevance for how physical activity relates to pelvic floor dysfunction.
