    What type of exercise helps to prevent osteoarthritis?

    I am concerned about my susceptibility to osteoarthritis, and would like to do everything possible to prevent it. I have learned that proper diet and exercise can help, but are there specific types of exercises that I should focus on (ie cardio vs. weights, running or biking, etc.)?

    The breakdown of cartilage in the knee can lead to bony protrusions called spurs and considerable joint pain.
