ABSTRACT
Osteopenia and osteoporosis are common diseases in the world. It is well known that bone degeneration can be prevented or decreased by regular physical activity.
High-impact exercise, like football has been shown to be associated with higher bone mass. Football involves running, kicking, jumping, tackling, turning, sprinting. During these movements the lower extremities are loaded with high-impact forces (Tarak<;i and Oral, 2009).
