Bones react to external stresses by strengthening bone. Smathers and other researchers aren’t sure why cyclists have lower bone density.

We're obese because we eat too much, and we're lazy as a society. Stop trying to make elegant answers to a simple question. Joe, here’s a comment.

The paradigm I currently align my thinking with is the one supported by the author of the book, the PH Miracle, Dr. Robert Young. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Young_(author) Dr Young sees obesity as a symptom of imbalance in bodily Ph. In his book Young states that when the body has excess acids it balances this ph imbalance by storing these excess acids in the form of Fatty Acids in adipose tissue. Blood ph is programed to maintain a slightly Alkaline Ph of 7.365. Here is what I believe: What this means is that our bodies are intelligently designed to balance on one side of the perfect ph, 7, and maintains this very delicate blood ph balance 7 days/week 365 days a year, no accident! Our bodily impulses on the other hand cause us to crave things like beer-ph4, soda pop-ph2.8. Most things sweet will cause us to accumulate acids in the body. Now as I stated in one of my other blog comments, Lactic Acid has a ph of 2.5 which is even more acidic than most of the foods we are lead to eat by our impulses for things that make us feel good. Through my research I found information leading me to understand that Calcium is the most alkalizing element found in the body. Humm, now lets connect the dots. When the body has STRONG acids present and needs to rid them from the body it will find an organic mineral(calcium) and combine this mineral with the STRONG acid. This turns the STRONG acid into a harmless salt. Why do we taste salty when we sweat? What kind of athletes spend hours and hours on a bike sweating? What kind of athletes do not typically do impact exercises that would stimulate the body to upgrade bone density? This is why I use vibration technology in my training. One of the exciting unexpected results from vibration training on vib plates was an increase in bone density as well the primary benefit of an increase in metabolism and oxygen uptake.
