Thesis Abstract

Abstract
This study investigates the relationship between muscle strength and bone density in young adults. The research aims to provide insights into how muscle strength influences bone density and to explore the potential implications for overall musculoskeletal health. The study will involve young adults aged 18-30 years, assessing their muscle strength through various physical tests and measuring bone density using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans. The research methodology includes a cross-sectional study design with a sample size of 200 participants recruited from local fitness centers and universities. The literature review examines existing research on the relationship between muscle strength and bone density, highlighting the importance of maintaining both for optimal musculoskeletal health. Previous studies have shown a positive correlation between muscle strength and bone density, suggesting that improvements in one may lead to enhancements in the other. However, the specific mechanisms underlying this relationship are not yet fully understood, warranting further investigation. The findings of this study are expected to contribute to the existing body of knowledge by providing empirical evidence on the relationship between muscle strength and bone density in young adults. The results will be analyzed using statistical methods to determine the strength and direction of the association between these variables. The discussion will focus on the implications of the findings for promoting musculoskeletal health and preventing conditions such as osteoporosis and sarcopenia. In conclusion, this research aims to enhance our understanding of the interplay between muscle strength and bone density in young adults and its implications for overall health. The study has the potential to inform future interventions aimed at improving musculoskeletal health outcomes in this population. The findings underscore the importance of maintaining both muscle strength and bone density through regular physical activity and targeted interventions to support musculoskeletal health throughout the lifespan.
