Associations between muscle mass and strength and bone microarchitecture in Caucasian postmenopausal women
In summary, greater ALMI and hand grip strength are associated with increased cortical area and trabecular vBMD, but lower cortical vBMD, which is partially explained by physical activity levels. Although greater muscle mass is correlated with larger bones, it comes at the expense of cortical vBMD in postmenopausal women.
