  Setting the scene: Male, age 70. During Covid I got fat, and I have arthritis in both knees. It hurt to stand. It hurt to begin to walk. It hurt getting in and out &nbsp;of the car. Fast forward with exercise, weight loss. I walk about a mile every day. I attend aerobics and Zumba classes. Pain is there, but pretty much gone most of the time. No longer hurts to stand, to walk, to get in and out of the car. The psychic benefits are there as well, healthy body, healthy mind. Work at being and staying positive. I should mention, too, I was pre-diabetic and going that way -- now that&apos;s all gone. What these guys say is true. Long time viewer and (obviously) endorser. Are things perfect? Nope. But I&apos;ve seen people go down the road of anger, depression, self-pity, self-medication and at my age, RIP. Lesson: Hang in there. Use it or lose it, and work at happiness. It just doesn&apos;t happen. Excelsior!

  My hips and back were tight…I thought I had sciatica as I had pain on one side of buttocks. &nbsp;I found a therapist on YouTube that recommended the yoga frog pose. &nbsp;I tried it on the bed as I couldn’t get down on the floor. &nbsp;To my surprise not only did it resolve the tightness in my hips and back but reduce my knee pain. &nbsp;I had severe pain in my knees when walking or going up and down the stairs. &nbsp;I tried all kinds of exercises and stretches but nothing worked. &nbsp;I thought I would need knee replacement and given up any hope of healing without drugs or surgery. &nbsp;That’s why I couldn’t believe how quickly the yoga frog pose fixed my knee, hip and back pain. &nbsp;I have to add that when I first did the frog pose, I couldn’t even do one…it was very uncomfortable and I realized how tight my hip flexors were. &nbsp;I kept doing it, in the morning and night and throughout the day when possible. &nbsp;I was able to stretch for longer and deeper with frequency and the relief in my knees, hips and back was almost immediate …especially my knees. I couldn’t believe it!! &nbsp;I’m about 90-95% better now. It’s like a miracle. &nbsp;I’m now back to going for walks daily and no issues going up and down the stairs. &nbsp;I’m so grateful, I found this stretch on YouTube. &nbsp;My advice is stretch your body and try different stretches because you don’t know what may work for you. Stretching is not just good for our muscles, it also helps our joints. &nbsp;I’m now back to stretching and exercising again. Good luck!

  As a guy who suffers from arthritis, especially when I’m trying to sleep. I want to honestly recommend a home sauna before bed it’s in your budget. It’s done wonders for my quality of sleep from reducing night arthritis for me.

  I&apos;ve been doing this for years (the soft knee walking). It has saved me from having surgery. I never knew what to call it. I just say that I try to use my muscles more than my joints.

  What you eat is important. If you have arthritis in a weight Bering joint losing weight will do much to lessen the pain. I had gouty arthritis and any animal food would give me an attack. I became a Vegan and it was with it as I was in a manual wheelchair and the pain in my hands was not easy to operate the chair.<br><br>I was able to lose 80 lbs., what a difference. I to the 10,000 Steps with my iPhone keeping track.<br><br>A much better quality of life. I can get on the floor to play with the grand kids. <br><br>Yes, I can make my food delicious. But being lighter also means less stress for my joints. I can wash my floors again, make the bed. <br><br>It is worth learning what kind of arthritis you have. I rarely have to take a pain pill. I am a 71 year old grandma and wife. Getting in and out of the motor home is a breeze. &nbsp;I found “The Starch Solution” by Dr. John McDougall, MD, &nbsp;works best for me. His lectures are free on YouTube.
