Dig It with Jo Whiley and Zoe Ball · 108: DIG IN: Strength Training: Your Hidden Superpower · 6 Jul 2026 podcast

So yes, as you said, Jo, you can modify.

There will be a way for Jo to train.

So one thing I would suggest is that she finds a programme or a routine where she can really focus on technique, which is key to keeping it safe.

something that's slow and controlled.

So then you can really listen to your body.

So you'll start to understand what feels just like a little bit of discomfort, which is fine if that dissipates quickly, and you'll know the difference between that and no, this is actually really painful and I need to not push through this.

And I would also say if she could see a physio or a PT, just because she's got quite a lot of things going on at once, if it is possible to get a session just to get a bit of guidance, then that might be a good place too.

But it's about modifying rather than just not exercising at all.

Snow Love 3, yes.

If it is arthritis, it absolutely can help.

Strength training can help.

It's not going to make the arthritis go away, as you know, Joe.

But it can absolutely help.

As you build that strength in the muscles, it's going to support the joints.

So it can absolutely help.

And I would say to her to...

again, not judge where she's at compared with other people.

So this lunge, don't worry about how low you're going in a lunge, but what might be helpful is to have a chair, the back of a chair to one side, and you can put a hand on the chair, just body weight.

So you're doing a lunge.

Don't worry about the length, the depth of that knee.
