What is the science behind Taichi and its benefits on the bones?
The specific exercises create sufficient loading on the bones (bone re-modeling), and do not create unnecessary stress on the joints through improper posture misalignment.
When coupled with the right intensity of Taichi training, together with correct postural alignment and the activation of the eccentric strength, it will then result in the optimal effectiveness of improving overall bone mass.
