As a physical therapist, Dr. Alyssa Kuhn of Keep the Adventure Alive describes what exercises she would take a client through with knee osteoarthritis in a hotel gym. Starting with a stationary bike for cardio, moving to a leg press machine, then ending with the free weights for deadlifts and a balance exercise.
These exercises can help you to find relief from knee osteoarthritis as well as build strong legs to support you through your arthritis adventures.
This gym routine can be replicated with different machines and exercises but the foundational structure of a typical workout includes 2-3 strengthening movements at 2-3 sets each, with cardio machines as a warm up and optional cool down.
