Abstract. | The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of 3 months of strength training on muscle strength in postmenopausal women with osteopenia/osteoporosis. Fourteen women (57.4 ± 3.2 years old) with postmenopausal osteopenia or osteoporosis were distributed into two groups: strength training group (STG) (n = 7) and control group (C) (n = 7). The training program included exercises such as seated hip abduction, seated machine dip, seated hip adduction, prone hamstring curls, seated knee extension, over a period of 3 months. Results: At the end of the study, the results of 14 subjects were analyzed. There were significant improvements for 1 repetition maximum (RM) in the strength training group (STG) for hip abductors (p = .017), triceps extension (p = .017), hip adduction (p = .016), knee flexion (p = .018) and knee extension (p = .002). For the control group (C) there were no significant difference compared to the baseline results for any of the tests. Conclusion: Resistance training program for women with postmenopausal osteopenia/osteoporosis improves muscle strength for the main muscle groups. |
