Another pearl from Dr Howard Luks.

Joints are built to move
to be nourished by motion,
supported by strong muscles,
and stabilized by coordination and control.
When movement disappears, strength fades
and joints are left unprotected.

Appropriate progressive movement
helps maintain joint health by strengthening the muscles,
tendons, and connective tissues that share the load.
Movement improves circulation,
supports cartilage nutrition,
and reinforces stability through strength.

Weakness forces joints to absorb stress alone.
Strength teaches the body how to distribute it.
When muscles do their job,
joints are guided, protected, and respected.

This doesn’t mean reckless motion.
It means intentional movement.
It means training through safe ranges,
building strength gradually,
and restoring confidence step by step.

Your joints don’t ask for less movement
they ask for better support.
They ask for strength, control and consistency.
Move with purpose.
Build strength around what matters.
Because strong joints are not the result of avoidance,
but of movement done well.

What are your thoughts on exercise and movement in general?

Move more, live longer

We’ve been taught to fear injury… to fear aging… to fear doing too much. But the real danger is doing too little for too long.

Movement is medicine. It protects your heart, brain, bones, and independence. Every step, every rep, every effort, no matter how small, is an investment in your future self.

You don’t need to go hard. You just need to go.

Because it’s not exercise that wears us down.

It’s the stillness that steals our strength.

I know that I sound like a broken record… and those of you who are upset by this, I’m sorry.

Getting fit is not an option if you want to live longer and healthier. Lift more, move more, enjoy life.

Step it up, not slow it down.
Credit to Dr Howard Luks.

Your chair is comfortable
Your excuses are cozy
But both are quietly stealing your independence.

Smart relentless movement is rebellion against frailty, disease and the slow erosion of your life.

Sweat, strain and push your limits today or watch the years slip away tomorrow.
Because aging gracefully isn’t luck
It's a choice and the clock is ticking.
