The results of the studies that I read are very much in line with the bone marrow & tendon changing methods of shaolin as well as verbal theory passed on to me concerning the results of the vibrations on the body when one practices standing.
On earth one will inevitably lose bone density with age yet I know some guys in their early 70's who have done the standing practice and do not seem to have lost any yet.
But the only way to really find out for one's self is to do the practice.
This is not proof, this is hearsay. I do the practice but I have not heard of any study that backs up what you say, which is why I am asking. What studies have you read?
