6 Best Workouts for Sore Joints

Don’t be afraid to try weight machines, free weights, and resistance bands to strengthen your joints and bones.

If you could do eight to ten different weight workouts 3 days a week you can begin to see a difference. As long as you ease up when you feel the pain you will be ok. 

Pilates 

This particular physical activity focuses on not only strength but also improving muscle control. This low-impact workout can help ease some pressure on your hips and all of your other joints. As long as you stick to your pace in your palates class you should be able to build muscle without damaging your joints.

Standing one foot or even walking in a backward motion can help with balance. Your posture while sitting and standing can highly impact your joints, so these things must get your attention. 

Home Fitness

There are so many options for those who want to get in shape. No gym no problem. You don’t even have to do a classified workout for it to be considered an exercise. Anything from cleaning the house, cutting the grass, pulling weeds, raking leaves, or washing your car is considered active. It all comes down to intention.

While you are washing dishes you can stand on one leg to strengthen them. This technique can even help prove your balance. Even soup can be used as a substitute for dumbbells. Ultimately don’t let joint pain or arthritis prevent you from being active. 

Bottomline

Joint pain can be very discouraging, but if you monitor your reps and weight it doesn’t have to be painful at all.
