Brief Summary
Several studies have shown that football practice regulates bone remodeling, producing an increase of bone mineral density and reducing the risk of fractures. Thus, the aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of football practice on the regulation of bone turnover in Spanish adult football players. Thanks to the collaboration agreement "Aula Endavant" the Villarreal CF participates as a collaborator in this Project. This agreement allows us to use their facilities and to analyze several football players' data.
