Swimming is the best form of non-weight bearing exercise.  It can do no harm and it can do so much good for you.  Strengthening the supporting muscles around the affected joints helps to protect the joints from stress...let the muscle take the blow, protect the joint.  All exercise is good for OA...stay as active as you can...now is the time to realize that you MUST "use it or lose it"!!  If you do too much and particular joints flare...ice them and rest them for a while but keep on exercising or the joint will deteriorate.  Take NSAIDS if you must to control pain and inflammation and remember ice cools the flare...heat is for sore muscles...ice is for inflammation of joints.  If the heat feels best psychologically, follow it with ice to cool it down...trust me, it works!  If you haven't already, get to a good Rheumatologist who can help you control your disease and join the Arthritis Foundation to get their magazine "Arthritis Today" which will give you constant sources of help for living with Arthritis....membership is only $20 per year....a bargain!  Good luck....I'm 20 years into my OA and I'm healthier and more active now than I was 20 years ago....you can do it too!

For tummy.\n\nEat less salty foods.\nDrink 8 glasses of water daily to avoid fluid retention.\nRemain physically active to burn calories. Different activities burn different number of calories. Choose an activity suitable for you.\nDo cardiovascular exercise (for at least twenty minutes, five times a week) like walking, jogging, swimming, bicycling, tennis, basketball, etc. You can also use a fitness ball. Remain in the target heart rate zone of the exercise intensity.\nWalking briskly for at least thirty minutes puts all of the abdominal muscles to work.\nAdd more mass to your muscles. Concentrate on all the muscle groups. Work down from the largest to the smallest muscles. Concentrate on these muscles in order: front and back of thighs, buttocks, back, chest, triceps, biceps, calves, hips, forearms and shoulders. Exercises with fitness ball or gym ball can be used for all the muscle groups.\nStabilize your blood sugar by eating every 2-3 hours. Know about glycemic index of foods and eat vegetables, fruits, nuts, berries, and whole grains with low glycemic index and low glycemic load values.\n\nfor hips.\n\nEat plenty of fruits, vegetables, wholegrain bread, pasta, rice, beans and cereal without any oily toppings. Choose low fat or fat free varieties.\nFlax seed oil and Evening Primrose Oil (EPO) gets converted to PGE1 and therefore are considered to be as fat burning supplements. The effect of PGE1 is to force fat to be used as fuel.\nExercise for fat Hips: Lay on your back on a flat surface on a floor mat with your hands on sides of your back. Move your legs as if you are cycling. Do it for 5 minutes daily.

Lean meats, protein. Running is great exercise for toning and losing belly fat. I don't know how much biking will help your abs, but it's better that you have a well-rounded workout.\n\nMy favorite exercise for abs is on a decline bench at a 30-degree angle. Holding a 10-lb weight on your chest (more as you improve; my boyfriend does 25, but I'm just a tiny girl), life yourself up in a sit-up. Do only enough so that you can work in side-to-side sit-ups as well within the SAME set. My exercise is 18 forward, 18 switching from left to right (bringing elbows to the opposite knee), then 18 forward again. I do three sets of this, and it's been working fabulously for me.

What an inspiration to those who want to work out, but are just too lazy.\nYou may have to diet a little more than the rest of us. Because, losing weight is easier if you combine both exercise & diet, at least it’s faster. My suggestion is to do any exercise that you can do from the waist up including both (Aerobic - raise heart level) Such as; Wheelchair basketball, sprints, and runs. (Anaerobic) - Dumbbell curls, presses, raises, skull crushers. Along with a moderate diet you should be able to shed some significant poundage. I hope I was of some help. I salute you keep up the highly motivated attitude. Good Luck!!

any aerobic exercise like running will help you lose the weight, then do sit ups and crunches to help you tone your belly. also, try to cut back on the food that is high in fat and carbs, and try to drink water more instead of other drinks high in sugar.

Leg exercises like bicycling.  Lie down after your morning bath.\n  Relax your tummy with small slaps for one minute. Sort of\n   make it gurgle, gently quickly move foods around with your\n   hand.  Then stretch your legs with lifts, 50 reps.  Walking\n   is the best spender of overweight storages.  Swimming is \n   for general good health too.

Bellydance! You can get some good videos off amazon.com. There is a set by a set of twins, they are very good. Good exercise, fun, tone your abs, and learn some sexy moves at the same time! I would also recommend Carmen Electra's Strip to Fit (also on amazon.com) as a fun way to lose weight and learn sexy moves.

try running, seams to burn more then walking, I know some people clam walking works just as good but they all seam to be large people.  you can also go to any store (most big box sores will have this) and go to there exercise equipment area then look for an abb wheel, its just a small wheel with a bar threw it.  use that, your tummy will be flat in no time.  It should run you around $10 or so, put a pillow or other padding down for you knees or they will not like it lol.

Lay on an exercise ball, tummy down so your lower pelvis is resting on the ball.  Support and stabalize yourself with your forearms.  As best as possible, put the soles of your feet together so your legs are in the 'frog' position then lift your feet being sure to squeeze your butt cheeks.  Do 12-18 repititions and 3 sets.  Lunges are also great.  Stationery or traveling lunges, with or without weights. Good Luck!

Couch exercise.. Lie on the couch with you legs on the arm and raise one leg at a time with controll. This will work your legs and the bottom of your tummy. Then on the carpet lean forward staying on your knees and do controlled push ups. This will work the arms and sholders and you can still watch tv.

No, it's lazy and it's dangerous. If you really want to lose weight do it the proper way. People die because of stomach stapling, they claim all they want is to be thin - but apparently not enough to get out of their reinforced chair and do some exercise once in a while.
