Question

Which type of exercise contributes the most to building strong bones

Answer 1

The best exercise for your bones is the weight-bearing kind, which forces you to work against gravity. Some examples of weight-bearing exercises include weight training, walking, hiking, jogging, climbing stairs, tennis, and dancing. Examples of exercises that are not weight-bearing include swimming and bicycling. Although these activities help build and maintain strong muscles and have excellent cardiovascular benefits, they are not the best way to exercise your bones. Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Swimming and bicycling are not weight-bearing activities, so they do not directly help build bones.
