Knee pain from osteoarthritis is common among adults in Ireland, where obesity is also a significant public health challenge. Only 40% of Irish adults are a healthy weight.

Obesity guidelines emphasise preventing weight gain, but most osteoarthritis studies focus on weight loss. During workshops wit
