About this listen
This episode dissects a randomized clinical trial that investigated whether weighted vest use or resistance training could prevent the bone density loss typically caused by intentional weight reduction in older adults with obesity. Over a 12-month period, researchers compared a diet-only group to groups adding either a weighted vest or supervised exercise to their regimen.
