Thanks so much guys for continuing to alert. Me to your excercises😅as you know I've been following all your excellent advice and exercise videos since lockdown 2020 and as one with OA and other health problems I am so grateful I found you as you have definately changed my life.. I am now 81 and probably fitter than when 61..❤️❤️❤️❤️🏴🏴🏴🏴
It's so great to hear that you are doing well! The benefits that you are experiencing are all due to your hard work, and we are also grateful for the opportunity to help you achieve your goals. Keep up the hard work!!
Excellent. Thank you. I had bilateral knee replacements 10 years ago. Doing these kinds of exercises regularly is keeping my supporting muscles strong.
Thank you such excellent and well presented advice! I have been given exactly these exercises by my Physio, so to have it backed up by you guys gives me great confidence that I'm on the right track! I feel empowered!!
You're welcome! We're thrilled to hear that our advice aligns with your physiotherapist's recommendations. It's fantastic that you feel empowered and confident in your treatment plan. Consistency and dedication to your exercises will undoubtedly contribute to your progress. Keep up the great work!
Great video. Thank you for the information as well as the exercises. Presenters are always good in these videos but kudos to the video editor as well. Great visual enhancements.
Love the video, thanks for providing the educational content. A couple of these exercises are definitely challenging for my knees, so they will be part of long-term exercises that I can gradually work up to.
Greetings from New Zealand. Thank you for giving hope. My mind fixated on the word degenerative thus leading to a sense of inevitable decline... so why bother trying? My immediate thought was oh, I shall have to stop dance and tennis in order to avoid wear and tear. I need a paradigm shift to wear and repair which seems counterintuitive. However, I will trust the process and just completed a set of exercises. Mama did not raise a quitter. If I must live with OA I will give my body every tool to master the pain. There are children suffer from juvenile OA so their courage is inspiring too.
Thank you so much for sharing your story. We are extremely glad to be of help, and yes we absolutely trust in the process of consistency and gradual progress.
Great informative video gents. I have knee OA and will follow this regime? I live in the UK and I have heard of different new kids on the block jount injections. Can I ask your feelings on these please? They are not cheap and our NHS is under so much pressure. So OA patients may have to pay in the future
We know that land-based exercise can help improve strength, pain tolerance and function when it comes to knee OA. Other methods of pain management, like injections, massage, modalities, etc., may be effective in controlling symptoms but we do know that they don't improve your tissue capacity to handle greater loading and movement. Regardless of the use of symptom management treatments, we recommend for land-based exercise be a part of your management strategy :)
thank you for the easy to understand exercises,and the talk about taking things like tumeric etc.i have fibramyalgia and have found doing water aerobics to be a huge benifit.i am 66yrs of age.i have lost a lot of weight over the few years since i have been doing these water exercises and have much better muscular and toning than before.but i have found out the hard way you might say that doing land exercises can put me out of action for days after this.what is a good amount of time to start with doing these wxercises?
It's important to modify the exercises so that they are tolerable during and after each workout. If you are finding any exercise aggravating, consider the following rules to modify them to make them tolerable: 1. Reduce the weight that you are using 2. Reduce the range of movement 3. Vary the movement or find a similar alternative
Thanks for the suggestion! If you are having trouble kneeling, you may find our video on getting up without kneeling helpful. Take a look here: studio.ua-cam.com/users/video2D89DkKotwg/edit
I have bee a be mobile member for 2 years. I still find squats etc a challenge. I have very limited movement when trying the lunge exercises. I think I may need to do the specific knee exercises more often.
That is a great idea! Ensure that you continue to give yourself sufficient rest between workouts (at least 48 hours between strength training sessions), especially if you are performing more exercises each session.
I have patella femoral tendinitis - are these exercises good for that? Getting up from a chair however high really hurts. I am 70 and really into helping others be fit and avoid operations. Have been doing these exercises for ages and not improving. Any ideas for runners knee which is what my condition is?
Most musculoskeletal pain resolve over time, and pain itself is rarely a sign of anything serious. We recommend that you use your symptoms as a guide to continue with your lower body exercises like the ones in this video to slowly allow your body to adapt to stimulus (during exercise) and recover afterwards. Ensure that your exercise intensity is tolerable during each of your workouts, and give yourself ample time to rest between workouts so that you can fully recover each time. Consider performing 2-3 workouts per week with at least 1 day of rest between each workout!
When knee pain is high , makes it difficult to do exercise. Accupunture or dry needling can you reduce pain , which then allows the person to exercise. Guidelines , don’t allow for this.
Thank you for sharing your experience! Exercising with pain is certainly a challenge, and the key is to find an appropriate exercise intensity (which may vary each day) so that you can continue to stick to your routine. Exercise itself is also helpful for managing pain over time as your joints adapt to loading and moving.
We don't believe any specific movement or exercise to be "bad" in general. Certain movements and exercises are more demanding and requires better preparation. What's important is that you find the level of intensity that you can tolerate well, regardless of type of exercise, and slowly progress by staying consistent over the long term.
Very helpful information thank you. I have just been diagnosed with knee OA and now I know what to do.
Thank you!

Getting knoledge from this.
Glad to be of help!
Isn't running a high-impact exercise and should be avoided? When cycling one's seat should be as high as possible to avoid over-working the knees.

@@bemobilephysio Thank you for your response, I have a better understanding now.
Good to know that surgery is not the best solution.
Glad to be of help! Let us know how you go with the exercises
