Exercise method 1: choose soft exercise with little impact on joints, step by step, including increasing joint range of motion exercise, strengthening muscle strength exercise around joints and increasing endurance exercise, such as walking, quadriceps exercise, swimming, Taijiquan, etc., to improve joint function.

Exercise method 2: osteoarthritis patients should not only avoid high-intensity weight-bearing exercise, but also have a certain amount of activity, so they need to develop appropriate exercise plan. Slow and steady exercise is the best way to start.
