Abstract: Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a common chronic degenerative joint disease. Hip muscle training, with the advantage of convenience and non-invasion, has been attached great importance by people gradually. Hip muscle training may affect keen medial compartment load, the strength and the electromyography signal of the muscle around the knee joint, and strong hip abductor can protect cartilage, which leads to change the load of the knee joint, and alleviate clinical symptoms. This article reviewed the mechanism of hip muscle training for knee osteoarthritis from the views of biomechanical simulation and electromyography.

Key words: knee osteoarthritis, hip muscle training, knee adduction moment, medial compartment load, joint cartilage, review
