You need to go swimming and/or cycling. These two sports avoid lots of impact through your joints, strengthen your muscles and help your heart and lungs stay healthy. As you get stronger and fitter, start introducing other sports like netball, football, dancing. These kind of activities will increase your muscle strength.
