About

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of obesity on knee degenerative arthritis on body composition after dietary control and elastic resistance exercise; and whether persistent exercise habits and dietary control can relieve pain and strengthen muscle strength. Improve the quality of life and the decline of other risk factors.

Full description

Due to dietary westernization and overweight, the number of knee joint degeneration is increasing year by year. Degeneration of knee arthritis can lead to pain and not exercise, and thus other chronic diseases. When the weight loss exceeds 5.1%, the function of the knee joint can be significantly improved and low heat weight loss (1200 kcal / day) and very low heat weight loss (less than 800 kcal / day) both weight loss The results are equally good .Many studies have shown that early and mid-interventional resistance exercise can improve muscle weakness, pain and stiffness in patients with degenerative knee arthritis, and elastic resistance exercise can effectively improve lower limb function and increase physical activity in patients with knee arthritis However, there has been no research on the effects of diet control and resistance exercise training on pain relief, body composition, lower limb function and quality of life in obese knee degenerative arthritis. The purpose of this study was to explore the degenerative knee degeneration. The effect of arthritis on the composition of the body after a balanced diet calorie control and home-based low-intensity elastic resistance movement; and whether persistent exercise habits and diet control can relieve pain, strengthen muscle strength, improve quality of life and other risks The effect of factor decline. Expected to combine the diet control and home group exercise to improve the quality of life of patients with degenerative knee arthritis.
