Physical Activity Programs

CDC-Recommended Programs

The physical activity programs listed below are proven to improve the quality of life of people with arthritis. Scientific studies have shown that physical activity can reduce pain, improve function, mood, and quality of life for adults with arthritis. Physical activity is also important for the management of other chronic conditions that are common among adults with arthritis, such as diabetes, heart disease, and obesity and can improve overall health and wellbeing. See our physical activity fact sheet to learn more about the importance of physical activity for people with arthritis. State and national partner receiving CDC’s Arthritis Program funding can disseminate these recommended programs.
