“…Isometric quadriceps exercises can trigger the movement of the quadriceps muscles and strengthen the strength of the muscles around the knee (Khosrojerdi et al, 2018;Wirayuni and Arista, 2021). This stimulates the release of endorphins, which can reduce the sensation of pain, and stimulates largediameter type I and II afferent fibers (proprioceptors) so that the activity of these afferent fibers can reduce muscle spasms as well as improve the peripheral circulatory system to reduce pain (Anwer and Alghadir, 2014;Limsakul et al, 2023;Smithard et al, 2022). This type of exercise, especially isometric quadriceps, is recommended for the elderly with osteoarthritis to strengthen muscles and joint mobility, relieve pain, and prevent further deformities (Anzari, 2018;Kangeswari et al, 2021;Syahputra and Nurwijayanti, 2021).…”
