Otago Home-Based Exercise Program in Community-Dwelling Older Women (METCOHEP Study)

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of group-based multimodal exercise training combined with Otago home-based exercise program on physical performance, balance and social participation in community-dwelling older women. Hypotheses: H0: Group-based multimodal exercise training combined with Otago home-based exercise program in community-dwelling older women has no effect on physical performance, balance and social participation. H1: Group-based multimodal exercise training combined with Otago home-based exercise program in community-dwelling older women has positive effects on physical performance, balance and social participation. Within the scope of the study, the exercise program will be carried out 3 days a week and for 16 weeks; * One day a week under the supervision of a physiotherapist, in the form of group exercise training in the center * Two days a week, the Otago Home Exercise Program will be conducted non-supervised at the participants' homes. Within the scope of group exercise training, it is planned to implement a program of approximately 45-60 minutes, including warm-up, strengthening, balance and cool-down exercises. The control group will not be included in any exercise application, if they wish, they can be recruited in the same program after 16 weeks. In addition, all participants will be given a training in which they will be informed about the risk of falling. There will be 2 evaluations at the beginning of the study and at the end of the 16-week program. Within the scope of the study, participants' balance, walking speed, muscle strength, fear of falling, participation, life satisfaction and loneliness parameters will be evaluated. At the end of this study, the change in balance, walking speed, muscle strength, fear of falling, participation, life satisfaction and loneliness in community-dwelling older women will be evaluated by applying the group-based multimodal exercise training combined with Otago home-based exercise p
