Clinicaltrials.gov NCT02941770. What is Known • Adolescents with obesity may be at a higher risk of osteopenia/osteoporosis • Obesity and inadequate diet and physical activity (PA) may have an adverse effect on bone metabolism What is New • Improvements in adiposity and muscle mass and increased diet carbohydrate content are associated with bone mineral density (BMD) improvements • Type of exercise (i.e., combined training vs. aerobic) may moderate the impact of PA on BMD, and calcium intake may mediate this impact.
