In our combined 30+ years of experience—it has been clear that exercise is paramount for reducing and preventing pain.
And now a new massive study backs it up.
An umbrella review combined 157 systematic reviews, 2,736 randomized trials, and 221,279 participants.
Exercise reduced pain across musculoskeletal, neurological, inflammatory, and cancer-related conditions. Aerobic exercise, resistance training, yoga, Pilates, and tai chi all showed benefits—and lower-intensity programs worked too.
As we say…can’t go wrong, getting strong.
