Summary

The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of an OA-specific aerobic and strengthening exercise program, delivered within the workplace, on mobility, pain, physical capacity, and resilience among workers with knee or hip OA as well as those with no joint pain. The investigators hypothesize that exercise designed for OA, delivered at work, will improve all of these outcomes.

Conditions

  • Osteoarthritis, Knee
  • Osteoarthritis, Hip

Interventions

OTHER

Exercise

A biomechanical exercise program shown to decrease joint loading will be administered 3 times a week for 12 weeks. Outcomes included mobility performance; pain; strength; cardiovascular fitness; and resilience.

OTHER

No Exercise

A no exercise (control) group will be asked to maintain their existing activity level for 12 weeks. Outcomes included mobility performance; pain; strength; cardiovascular fitness; and resilience.
