The goal of this study is to investigate the acute effects of drop-landing exercise on the bone metabolism biomarkers and extracellular vesicles in healthy young males, in order to gain a deeper understanding of the mechanotransduction mechanisms involved in bone metabolism. The main question aims to answer: • Does a single bout acute drop-landing exercise change serum sclerostin, other bone signaling markers, and circulating extracellular vesicles levels? Participants complete both the drop-landing and control trials in a randomized order, with a minimum washout period of one week between trials. During each trial, blood samples are collected at three time points: pre-, immediately post, and 1-hour post drop-landing/control exercise.
