Resumo

The findings from this 18-month, community-based study revealed that an exercise program involving strength training and jumping activities was feasible and effective for improving bone density, muscle mass and strength in older men. There were no additional skeletal benefits derived from consuming a high calcium-vitamin D milk drink.
