Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

A decrease in muscle mass and function can cause the development of many chronic diseases, including sarcopenia. It has been reported that the best intervention for sarcopenia is exercise. Despite this, the optimal type of exercise for sarcopenia has not yet been determined. Although the holistic approach is used in the literature in the elderly population, it is noticeable that it does not find much space for itself in this patient group. In this study, it was aimed to examine the effects of holistic approach-based exercise program on individuals with sarcopenia.
