Brief Summary

The design of our study is a prospective. It is planned to be completed in twenty-four weeks with 34 participants. The main purpose of this study is to examine and compare the effects of two different bike exercises on knee joint and lower extremity muscles by ultrasonographic method.

Conditions

Knee Osteoarthritis

Keywords

Knee Joint; Exercise; Ultrasound; Bicycle

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Baseline knee joint cartilage thickness and muscles thicknesses

  Ultrasonographic measurements will be made using linear probes (5-13 megahertz Logiq P5; GE Medical Systems) .Joint cartillage thickness and lower extremity muscles will measured by ultrasound at baseline.

  Just before first exercises session

• Knee cartilage thickness and muscles thicknesses after 6 weeks training program

  Ultrasonographic measurements will be made using linear probes (5-13 megahertz Logiq P5; GE Medical Systems) .Joint cartillage and lower extremity muscles will measured by ultrasound after 6 weeks training program. Joint cartillage thickness and lower extremity muscles will measured by ultrasound after 6 weeks.

  After 6 weeks training program
