Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Why does the range of movement increase as we exercise?
A
Because exercise stimulates the production of synovial fluid.
B
Because the muscles become stronger
C
Because exercise stimulates the production of fatty acids
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Exercise gets the heart pumping, which increases blood circulation throughout your body – including your joints. As a result, the synovial membrane is exposed to a steady supply of nourishing oxygen and nutrients.

Detailed explanation-2: -When the cartilage is damaged as in osteoarthritis, the body responds by increasing the production of synovial fluid (sometimes 3 times as much) in order to compensate for the diseased joint. The excess fluid can cause the joint to become distended, causing further pain.

Detailed explanation-3: -Regular physical activity can keep the muscles around affected joints strong, decrease bone loss and may help control joint swelling and pain. Regular activity replenishes lubrication to the cartilage of the joint and reduces stiffness and pain.

Detailed explanation-4: -Stretching. Strength training. Quadricep squats. Knee flexion. Heel raises. 14-Oct-2022
