  2. Regular exercise has huge benefits for your health. Exercise helps you achieve a healthy heart, brain and metabolism and reduces risk of heart attack, stroke and premature death. • Exercise has been proven to have very significant advantage on general health benefits for everyone, weather they have got existing joint troubles or not. • Despite all these benefits, there is a rising belief that exercise causes arthritis. But the fact is an obese body causes much more strain on your joints than exercise.

  3. Studies have also shown that most active people had the same risk of arthritis as the non-active ones, both in terms of symptoms and x-ray abnormalities. • Arthritis happens when the cartilage that cushions the joints begins to wear and tear. The cartilage does not have its own blood supply, it has to depend on joint fluids for its nutrients. Exercise compresses joints, forcing more nutrient rich joint fluid into cartilage, thus making exercise good for joints. • A few things should be kept in mind when you develop exercise as a habit like warming up and cooling down with good stretching to protect your heart and joints. Good shoes and good technique will also avoid and musculoskeletal injuries. Simple precautions and general sense will make exercise safe for your joints.
