In order to be healthy, my mother goes out to bed every day, and often runs, and does it at night. Will this be harmful to the joints?

    Appropriate exercise is good, but excessive exercise has a great impact on the joints. Many exercises increase the risk of knee injuries. High-intensity sports such as running and jumping are harmful to middle-aged people, without putting more pressure on bones and joints. Swimming and cycling are more suitable for them. According to Christopher Stirling of the University of California, the data shows that middle-aged people who are over-exercised are people with a high incidence of arthritis, but further research is needed to evaluate the effects of low-intensity exercise and high-intensity exercise on the disease.
