Are Your Joints Keeping You From Exercising?

A lot of us have joint problems like arthritis or or early osteoporosis, so normal
resistance training and high impact exercise are not an option. Here are some non-weight-bearing and non-impact activities:

  • Bicycling and indoor cycling
  • Deep water walking
  • Stretching and flexibility exercises (avoid bending forward)
  • Swimming
  • Water Aerobics
