To examine the effects of different exercise doses (physical therapy alone, physical therapy plus 4 kcal/kg body weight/week, and physical therapy plus 8 kcal/kg body weight/week) on body weight, the Japanese Knee Osteoarthritis Measure (JKOM), and skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) in overweight female patients with knee osteoarthritis, and to identify the optimal exercise dose.

Treatment
| Behavior,custom |
Standardized physical therapy only: range of motion exercises for hip and knee joints, strengthening exercises mainly for quadriceps and hip abductors, balance training, basic movement training, and activities of daily living training, twice weekly for 12 weeks.
Standard physical therapy plus cycle ergometer exercise at 4 kcal/kg body weight/week. Exercise dose was gradually increased from 1 kcal/kg/week by 1 kcal/kg/week per week, reaching 4 kcal/kg/week at week 4 and maintained thereafter. Twice weekly for 12 weeks.
Standard physical therapy plus cycle ergometer exercise at 8 kcal/kg body weight/week. Exercise dose was gradually increased from 1 kcal/kg/week by 1 kcal/kg/week per week, reaching 8 kcal/kg/week at week 8 and maintained thereafter. Twice weekly for 12 weeks.
