when you do load bearing exercise it puts stress on your skeleton. the bones that comprise your skeleton are porous. that means there are microscopic holes in your bones. when you do exercise, the structure that makes up your bones can crack. it's only microscopic cracks and then they heal without you ever knowing. when they heal they grow back thicker and stronger.
