Show Notes

Have you ever wondered how much movement you really need when it comes to finding arthritis pain relief and feeling stronger?


There are different goals based upon two things:

  1. Your pain levels
  2. Your current level of activity 


When just starting out and/or with higher levels of pain, including 5-10 minutes of purposeful movement into your day can be incredibly helpful. 


If you have a higher fitness level and/or your pain levels are lower, aiming for 3 workouts per week is a good goal to start with depending on the intensity of the workouts and how hard they feel for you.
