If you have a very costly car (your body) but its tyres are flat and the rim is bent, then? The car can be repaired at a cost, but not your fifty years’ old frame! We are very much careful about our facial appearance, hair style, root canal treatment, heart condition, kidney’s wellbeing, but we neglect our lower limbs which are most essential part of our body to make us (mobile) move out of our bed and then the house.

Daily 30 minutes of your time to strengthen your leg muscles and spinal muscle is what you need in old age which must start from youth.

Friends, in this age of internet, you know everything. Still then please do this simple exercise to make you mobile.

Asking for a wheel chair in airport is quite a shameful thing at the age of fifty or sixty, unless you had a stroke or a broken leg?

Build stronger muscles around your joints.

It can help your body absorb some of the shock that normally goes through your joint when you move around during the day.

A strong muscle will prevent a limb from slapping down on the pavement and jarring the joint.

Try to build up the muscles that surround your joint.

To improve symptoms in your knee, for example, strengthen the quadriceps muscles, which are in the front of your thigh. A physical therapist or a personal trainer with experience in working with people with arthritis can show you exercises that will help. Climbing staircase and walking are good for legs.

Do aerobic exercise. Arthritis pain may make you reluctant to work out, but research shows that pain and stiffness get worse when you aren't active enough.

Regular exercise that gets your heart pumping will boost your blood flow, which keeps cartilage well nourished.

And an extra benefit: it helps you reach a healthy weight.

Muscles hold your bone firmly; hence building up of muscles is essential for a good mobile healthy body. Start from Monday, please.

Stay as active as you can tolerate, but avoid high-impact activities, like jumping and running. Running on hard surface may ruin your knees.

A pair of good fitting shoe is a must for walking and running. Better choices are things like walking, cycling, and swimming. Aim for 30 minutes of aerobic exercise at least 5 days a week.

Slim down if you're overweight. It will help you to take stress off your knees and hips. Every kilogram you lose removes few kilograms of ‘pressure’ off your knee.

That lessens wear and tear in the joint. Experts say, "You may actually slow the progress of arthritis if you lose a significant amount of weight."

Add 5kg to your matriculation weight—that should be fine. Provided you were thin built then, say weighing between 52 to 56 kg.

What's significant, every 2kg you lose will reduce joint pain by 20%!

Your chassis is your vertebral column and tyres are the legs.

Please take care of them or remain dependent on a helping hand, or your children may put you in old age homes.
