This study is a randomized controlled trial which aims to compare the effect of weight bearing exercises and non-weight bearing exercises on the dynamic balance in knee osteoarthritis patients as 60 patients will divided in three groups where one group is control group and others two groups one of them perform weight bearing exercises and the other perform non weight bearing exercises.

| Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation | Combination Product | it is one of the electrical stimulation modalities which is used to relief pain, each patient receive it on both knees every session. |
|
|
| weight bearing strengthening exercises | Combination Product | strengthening exercises for quadriceps, gluteus maximus, gluteus Medius and calf muscle in the form of weight bearing from standing position each exercise was repeated for 10 times with 5 seconds hold in the same set and patient perform three sets in the same session for both lower limbs. |
|
| Non-weight bearing strengthening exercises | Combination Product | strengthening exercises for quadriceps, gluteus maximus, gluteus Medius and calf muscle in the form of non-weight bearing from lying and setting positions each exercise was repeated for 10 times with 5 seconds hold in the same set and patient perform three sets in the same session for both lower limbs. |

Joint Repositioning Accuracy where the knee is moved passively to a certain angel and the patient hold it in this angle and then it moved to the start position and then the patient asked to move his knee joint actively to the previous the same previous angle then the absolute error between the true angle and the reproduced angle is measured.
