Abstract

Osteoporosis is a metabolic disease in cases of bone fragility. It is noteworthy that 60-minute physical exercises, 2 to 3 times a week, are affective in the long term for combating the disease. However, the reduction of physical activities may be related to the early onset of osteoporosis, a fact thay may increase the risk of injury, as low bone density is a predisposing factor for some types of fracture.
