You are right, I am at a lower BMI (still healthy) and I did an in-body screening of body composition analysis back in May. The ideal mineral weight range is 6-7% of my body weight. I am a little lower than the lower limit by 60g, probably might have to consider supplements.

Can see my wife (age grp 50), even supp with good blood levels of 25 hydroxyvit d and exercise also a bit of osteopenia.
What more about the general population. I think Dr google mentioned prevalance like around 50% for SG or something, cant rem. Dont wait till osteoporosis, that one for seniors once fall jialat already.

My pops 2 weeks ago fell @ wet market, quite a bad one, hands with plastic bags so i think he wanted to protect the stuff and did break fall nicely (or maybe dont use wrists to break fall better lol) ....nearly half of the leg/buttocks blue black. No issue other than that, my mum wanted him to go A&E check despite GP clearance coz he still feeling pain 12hrs later. (y)Age early 80s.

LOL worse than i tot.....

n Singapore, the prevalence of osteopenia (low bone density) is quite high, particularly among middle-aged and older adults. A study focusing on adults aged 40-60 years found that 58.99% had osteopenia, with a significant proportion also having osteoporosis. This highlights a substantial public health concern regarding bone health in Singapore.

what shoe next ?
From 0 to720km today.
Looking at a relatively light shoe with outsole that is quite lasting. no need carbon plate. have seen the Hoka Sky flow outsole looks good and quite light as well.

Think age group 25-29.
for someone at this age group, his z2 hr (60-70% max HR) should be around 115-137bpm. very impressive to do this in SG warm & humid climatic conditions. very efficient running mechanics and high fitness level

Base on my DEXA scan for a study. Running helps alot on spinal bone density. My score is excellent for spine for my age, as good as those 30 yo people. However my Hip bone neck is at the high end of Osteopenia. Check with AI, likely concluson is target load of running is not directed at the hip. Nutrition is not the issue, as can see the spine is excellent, it has all the nutrients to maintains and targeted impact loading from running, but the Hip neck is disproportional low BMD.
I already add it kettlebell snatch which has quite explosive hip extension in it's move and single legged dead lift with kettlebell. Will check my DEXA scan end of the year and see if this add on exercises will help.

Interesting info....hmm that is really food for thought, how to train (impact) the hips / pelvis.
I'll see if i can find anything.

He mentioned his Z2 high range shd be around 155bpm or something tho....for running (not bike). Possibly using 80% for the upper end of Z2.

They are doing easy run, must be around 5min pace. Chatting and smiling. Damn solid!
