Few data exist to date on the effect of eccentric muscle building in knee osteoarthritis. No studies have compared the effect of eccentric versus concentric reinforcement in knee osteoarthritis. Our study aims to show the effectiveness of an eccentric reinforcement. This is a randomized, interventional trial.
