Research to back goals
Performing 10-100 jumps 3-7 days per week has been shown to increase bone mineral density and is a desirable form of exercise for the prevention of osteoporosis.
(Bailey & Brooke-Wavell, 2008).
Starting with hopping in one place for 1-minute bouts, and then increasing the duration of the bouts or the number of bouts can increase bone strength.
(Bolam et al., 2013).
2, 30-minute HiRIT workouts showed increases in bone strength compared to a control group.
(Watson et al., 2018).
Those logging around 60 min/day of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) showed greater bone growth rates.
(Gabel et al., 2017).
The Osteoporosis Foundation recommends skeletal loading exercises 5-7 days per week for at least 30 minutes.
(Stanghelle et al., 2020).
There was the highest increase of 2% (bone-mineral density) in the group that performed daily exercises.
(Bailey & Brooke-Wavell, 2010).
