More good news concerning exercise. Current federal exercise guidelines show that only 150 minutes of exercise per week can confer large health benefits. Unfortunately only 1 out of 10 older Americans with knee arthritis meet these guidelines.
Now a recent study from Northwestern Medical shows that only 45 minutes of exercise per week will keep an older person with knee arthritis functional, and it does not even have to be done in at least 10 minutes blocks of time.
So if you are in this category, just do a little more exercise like walking or activities that you enjoy and it significantly help with the knee arthritis.
Anyone have improvements with knee arthritis from exercise?
