Walking can be a great exercise for your body but to ensure you continue to enjoy it and don't experience pain- it's important to make sure your joints are prepared. The best ways to protect your joints include muscle strengthening and challenging balance. Both muscle strength and balance make a big difference to supporting your joints during an activity like walking.

As a physical therapist who specializes in osteoarthritis, Dr. Alyssa recommends prioritizing two exercises to maximize your gains for walking. The best walking exercises include a modified single leg squat and balance with head turns. Both of these exercises can help to strengthen the walking muscles. They can also help to ensure safety by helping to reduce fall risk as well as making sure your muscles are able to support the knees and hips.
If you have hip arthritis or knee arthritis, these walking exercises can be incredibly beneficial, but you may need to modify accordingly based upon pain levels. When walking with arthritis, strength and balance are even more important because your arthritic joints need the support.
