Gang:

Regarding this subject I have a little experience. I did a bone density test for the hell of it and yes I do have reduction in density. My doctor asked what kind of exercise I do, and he said before I answered him I bet it is Cycling.

The only exercise that increases density is IMPACT activity...a la running, walking etc. Even Swimming has the same affect as cycling.

Take your Calcium boys and girls.

Dale if this is off subject I will end it at this.

Cheers,

Jack
