Kieser works

Arthrose

Osteoarthritis is the most common joint disease worldwide – more than 300 million people are affected. It most frequently occurs as knee osteoarthritis or hip osteoarthritis. The risk increases with age: the joint cartilage wears down, and mobility decreases.

However, osteoarthritis does not necessarily mean chronic pain or loss of mobility. Studies clearly show that targeted strength training is one of the most effective methods to slow cartilage degradation, reduce pain, and maintain joint function. Strong muscles relieve your joints – whether in knee osteoarthritis, hip osteoarthritis, spondyloarthrosis, or polyarthritis. Health-oriented strength training improves your stability, reduces discomfort, and promotes your quality of life – step by step.

Kieser – Your strong partner in managing osteoarthritis

More and more people – especially those in their prime – are affected by osteoarthritis. One in two women and one in three men aged 70 to 79 suffer from typical symptoms such as pain, stiffness, or limited mobility.

A key to improvement lies in targeted movement, especially strength training. However, many affected individuals hesitate because they associate movement with pain.

This is exactly where Kieser comes in: With medically based strength training, we help you strengthen your joints, reduce discomfort, and regain mobility and quality of life.

Over time, our joints wear down – especially when they’re underused. From the age of 60, osteoarthritis becomes more common. Often, however, it goes unnoticed, which is why early prevention is crucial. Lack of physical activity is now one of the most important risk factors for osteoarthritis. The disease arises from the degradation of cartilage tissue – in the worst case, bone rubs against bone. The result: severe pain and limited mobility.

Studies show: targeted strength training, regular exercise, and conscious nutrition can slow cartilage degradation and preserve joint function in the long term. In Germany alone, over four million people live with artificial joints. But: those who take action early can significantly improve natural joint preservation into old age.

Evidence

Strong Joints Through Targeted Strength Training

Osteoarthritis is one of the most common joint diseases and often involves pain, limited mobility, and functional loss. This can lead to social isolation and financial burden. One of the main causes of osteoarthritis symptoms is muscle weakness. A recent meta-analysis of 27 studies with 1,712 participants confirms: regular strength training reduces pain, strengthens muscles, and improves joint function – both in knee and hip osteoarthritis.

Your Benefits from Strength Training in Osteoarthritis

Do you suffer from chronic joint discomfort, movement restrictions, or a stiff hip? These symptoms may indicate osteoarthritis – particularly common in people over 50.

However, today targeted strength training is considered one of the most effective approaches to alleviate symptoms and positively influence the course of the condition. How does it work?

More stability

Strength training specifically strengthens the joint-stabilising muscles to sustainably improve the natural stability and movement function of your joints.

More strength, less strain

Strength training strengthens your muscles and reduces the strain on your cartilage.

Improved circulation

Strength training increases blood circulation and nutrient transport to your joints.

Less pain

Strength training can help relieve pain and stiffness, making your daily life more active.

Better body composition

Strength training supports the reduction of excess fat and can lower inflammation.
