UNASSIGNED: @entity1 with moderate to severe @entity306 are at risk for low bone mass for chronological age, which compounds risk in adulthood for progressive @entity1118 . Physical activity and exercise can be a key component to optimizing bone health. In this case report we present a young adult male with non-ambulatory, spastic @entity2723 whom began a seated speed, resistance, and power training exercise program at age 14.5 years. Exercise program continued into adulthood as part of an active lifestyle. The individual had a history of failure to thrive, bowel and @entity1494 , reduced bone mineral density (BMD) for age, and @entity85 at the time exercise was initiated. Participation in the exercise program began once a week for 1.5-2 hours/session, and progressed to 3-5 times per week after two years. This exercise program is now a component of his habitual lifestyle. Over the 6 years he was followed, lumbar spine and total hip BMD Z-scores did not worsen, which may be viewed as a positive outcome given his level of gross motor impairment. Additionally, the individual reported @entity615 , improved bowel and bladder control, increased energy level, and never sustained an exercise @entity130 . Findings from this case report suggest a regular program of seated speed, resistance, power training may promote overall well-being, are safe, and should be considered as a mechanism for optimizing bone health.
