what it claims

It is possible to reverse bone density loss after age 60 by gradually incorporating mechanical loading exercises, specifically strength training and plyometrics (jumping).

The idea that bone tissue remains adaptive at age 60 is solidly supported by scientific literature.

noli's read

The idea that bone tissue remains adaptive at age 60 is solidly supported by scientific literature. Meta-analyses (e.g., Howe et al., Cochrane Library) confirm that resistance training and impact exercises are essential for maintaining or improving bone mineral density in postmenopausal women. The use of plyometrics to stimulate osteogenesis via high ground reaction forces is also documented in randomized controlled trials (RCTs), such as the LIFTMOR study, which shows significant benefits with high loads. However, the claim that one can 'repair' bones to return to a 'normal range' in 6–8 months is an optimistic interpretation; while improvement is real, the return to so-called 'normal' bone density depends heavily on the initial stage of bone loss and hormonal or nutritional factors. This advice is therefore based on real physiological mechanisms (Wolff's law), but the timeframe and magnitude of results presented should be viewed as cases of favorable individual response rather than a universal guarantee.
