Meet the inclusion criteria geriatric individuals information, vital signs (pulse,"beats /min", blood pressure, " mmHg ", respiration number, respiratory rate,) was recorded. Depression levels, Depression Outcome Scale- KOFDSS to and quality of life is Quality of Life Survey -EUROHIS WHO-QOL) were evaluated. 6-week, 4 days a week aerobic exercise program was applied to geriatric individuals. As aerobic exercise which included the heating and cooling cycle was started the first week and 120 minutes, 160 minutes weekend out and gradually the intensity was given as an exercise program to be increasing.
