Abstract
Objective: This trial was directed to assess the impact of aerobic exercise versus resisted exercises on osteoporosis in prostate cancer patients going through androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Methods: Thirty prostate malignant growth patients experiencing osteoporosis after receiving ADT were chosen from Oncology office at El Galaa Hospital for Armed Forces. Their age went from 50 to 65 years and were partitioned arbitrarily into two equivalent groups. group A (aerobic exercises): This group included 15 PCa patients who got aerobic exercises through exercising on Biostep cross rowing ergometer plus traditional care (Calcium and vit D supplements), 3 days out of each week for 12 successive weeks. group B (resisted exercises): This group included 15 PCa patients who got resisted training for both lower extremities (hip flexors, abductors and knee flexors, and extensors) by free sandbags of various loads plus traditional care (Calcium and vit D supplements), 3 days out of each week for 12 consecutive weeks. Dual energy x-beam absorptiometry (DEXA) was utilized for assessment of BMD before the treatment and following 12 weeks of treatment for all participants. Results: The trial showed that there was a statistically improvement in BMD and T-score mean of spine, femoral neck and total femur post treatment in the resistance practice group contrasted with aerobic group. The percent of change in BMD of spine, left femoral neck and total femur in the group A was 26.02, 18.9 and 19.47% respectively, while that in the group B was 39.55, 41.33 and 39.94% respectively
