TY for your indepth information supported by your expert review of so many studies! I really like how you know how to dive into the studies and dissect whether they are truly accurate or not, and give thoughtful intelligent reasons why/why not. I'm going to keep watching your channel and check out your Masterclass. I've reversed ostopenia on my own, but I want to learn more and continue to do so.
Great overview- I am not surprised at all with the conclusions of the these studies. The main points that you make at the end are what is important. We just need to get this info out to the younger population as I wish I had focused more on weights and resistance training earlier on.
Great question! Checkout our health span nation if you have not yet, you get exclusive access to me and a community of people pursuing health and longevity.

@@Dr_DougLucas Can't you just give a simple short answer. Not all of us have time for health span nation. I get it that's a set response on these videos.
Great info regarding the danger to long term bone health from swimming. Another sport that is even more detrimental to bone health is cycling. Elite cycling caused my osteoporosis at a relatively young age and led to multiple fractures. There are many studies highlighting this risk. One excellent study is titled: "Longitudinal Changes in Bone Mineral Density in Male Master Cyclists and Nonathletes". It showed that 89.5% of male elite masters cyclists developed osteopenia or osteoporosis. 😮
Well, I like biking for my mental health. I'm not biking at the crazy level anymore. A 15-mile ride 3-4 days a week, occasionally 20 & when I have time, maybe a 25-30 mile ride on a beautiful Sunday! I also do weight bearing exercises, Pilates & I jump rope. I work in my garden doing heavy duty work & work for a lady doing work in her gardens weeding & planting. Keeps me moving & getting some sun. Motion is lotion!

It’s a no brainer swimming will NOT increase bone density!!!!! However I like going for a swim at my club after my intensive weight training ! I’m 72 !!!!
How about strength training in the gym, is it better with free weights, like dead lifts or with a gym machine? How about bioidentical hrt for women? Thank you!

I have osteoporosis and I swim just about everyday even in winter,living in Florida. I use LARGE fins for resistance and do the breaststroke for one hour straight. No too fast, not too slow, just steady. Sometimes I flip over and swimming backwards, point is to consistently move against the resistance of the water. Switching up my arm movements also. It has helped me immensely. I also take all the vitamin supplements except calcium and eat a low carb diet. I am 66 and NOT on any medication because I took Bonita for about 6 months and my upper back teeth broke off, and when I went to the dentist he asked me if I was taking any osteoporosis medication. I stopped immediately after that and still had cracking teeth for a while after that. My doctor wanted me to try Prolia and of course I said NO. I had to have those 6 teeth removed and have a retainer now. I also exercise with resistance bands.

Love and appreciate your analysis of these studies. I don’t like the conclusions because I love to swim. My solution to this dilemma is jumping in the pool for a swim as my reward for doing the strength training exercises. 😊
@@Dr_DougLucas I don't want to mislead on this issue. I am recovering from a traumatic back injury when I broke two vertebrae. The remark was not to do with osteoporosis, I'm sorry I should have made that clear.
I agree you talk a lot because you’re trying to keep our attention. That’s very nice sometimes why don’t you get to the point quicker please I can’t sit here watching all day and then I don’t watch it at all.
This video isn’t even 6 minutes long. If that’s “way too much analysis”, maybe this channel simply isn’t for you. I feel like his best content is 25 minutes +.

Take Citracal slow release with vit. D3 and also K2.
Thank you so much for sharing all of this!
A lot of therapist say don't use exercise machines that you flex, bend over or rotate. What do you think?
Yep! Rotation bad for spines with low bone density & bending forward & down not good either. Puts tremendous pressure on the spine.

Just skip ahead toward the end and you'll get that. :)

I do like the analyses of the studies. Yes, skip to the end if it’s too long for you.
Sorry, don't be so lazy. Use his helpful timestamps.
