There are three types of exercise:
1 Strength training:
The knee joint relies heavily on the muscles around it to maintain normal postural alignment during walking and other activities. Muscle weakness is common in knee osteoarthritis and other chronic knee conditions. Strengthening exercises help to build up weak muscles around the hip and knee to protect the knee from forces that load and stress the cartilage.
You can strengthen your knee at the gym or just using a flexible band at home. Cycling is great, as well as pool-based exercises (swimming or aqua aerobics).

Strengthening and stretching exercises can help ease medial (inner) knee pain. This includes chronic conditions like knee osteoarthritis (OA) and knee bursitis or acute injuries such as a sprained medial collateral ligament (MCL) and dislocated kneecap.
The exercise plan can differ by your condition and the severity of your
symptoms. The plan should ideally be directed by your healthcare
provider, a physical therapist, or a specialist in joint and bone disorders known as an orthopedist.

Stretching plays an essential role in any fitness routine. Whether you’re just getting started with a new exercise plan or you’ve been working out consistently for years, stretching helps prepare your muscles for movement and cool down your body after physical activity.
Additionally, it can improve range of motion and flexibility, promote
blood flow to muscles, and decrease risk of injury, according to the Mayo Clinic.
