The Effect of Exercise as A Supplement to Quality of Life in Elderly Men Based on EUROQOL: A Cross-Sectional Study
Abstract
Regular exercise and physical activity have great benefits for the elderly, and promoting physical activity among this population helps to maintain their basic functions and health. This study aimed to investigate the impact of exercise as a supplement on the quality of life of elderly men residing in the Maku Free Zone. The elderly participants were divided into an experimental group (EG) and a control group (CG). The experimental group underwent a 12-session exercise program, involving 65 minutes of exercise per week, while the control group was placed on a waiting list for two months. Information was collected using a quality of life questionnaire (EQ-5D), and the research data were analyzed using ANOVA. The results revealed that the experimental group (EG) exhibited better scores on quality of life measures compared to the control group (CG). Mobility emerged as the dimension most independently correlated with exercise participation. In light of these findings, relevant authorities should take decisive action to create environments that promote participation in sports and lifelong physical activity for the elderly.
