Summary

The investigators are looking at the effects of energy restriction, with or without exercise on markers of inflammation in individuals with knee osteoarthritis. There will be a 4 week 'wash-in' period where participants will maintain their normal lifestyle, followed by a 4 week 'intervention period' where participants will be randomised into either the diet alone group or the diet plus exercise group.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Diet Only

Participants caloric intake will be reduced by 5000kcal per week over 4 weeks

OTHER

Diet plus Exercise

Participants caloric intake will be reduced by 5000kcal per week over 4 weeks. Participants will also be asked to perform 5x30 minute cycling exercise sessions at home. Each week the intensity of exercise will be increased (week 1 = RPE 12, week 2 = RPE 13, week 3 = RPE 14, week 4 = RPE 15)
