Background
2
• Exercise trials suggest that high impacts are beneficial for skeletal health in postmenopausal women (1)
• Cross sectional studies using accelerometers suggest that day-to-day exposure to high impacts is also positively related to hip bone mineral density (BMD) in adolescents (2) and premenopausal women (3)
• Equivalent studies have not been performed in postmenopausal women, including older individuals at risk of osteoporosis

1. To establish whether day-to-day exposure of older women to high vertical impacts, assessed by seven day accelerometer recordings, is positively related to lower limb bone strength
2. To determine whether any relationship with bone strength we find is explained by relationships with BMD or bone size
3. To explore whether exposure to vertical impacts are related to bone turnover markers, and whether these might also contribute to observed associations with bone strength

Discussion
• Day-to-day exposure of older women to higher vertical impacts is positively associated
with bone strength of the hip and tibia.
• This relationship appears to be explained by alterations in bone size as opposed to
BMD.
• An equivalent positive association was not observed with low or medium impacts.
• Increased rates of bone formation relative to resorption may contribute to these
relationships between higher impacts and bone strength

Limitations
• Difficulty in making causal inferences from cross sectional studies
• Seven day accelerometer recordings may not fully capture long term patterns of
physical activity
• Since effect sizes were relatively small, the clinical significance of relationships
between higher impacts and bone strength which we observed is unclear
• Participants are likely to represent a relatively healthy sub-population, limiting
generalisability of our observations

Conclusions
• Habitual levels of higher, but not medium or low, vertical impacts in older women are
positively associated with lower limb bone size and strength.
• Equivalent relationships are not observed for low or medium impacts.
• The benefit of day-to-day physical activity in older women for their skeletal health
appears to be explained by exposure to higher impacts, despite their rarity and the
relatively low g levels used to define these.
