N2 - Muscle stength and mobility decrease with age. Strengthenig exercise can prevent decreased muscle strength and mobilitiy. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of home-based Quadriceps femoris strengthening exercise in elderly subjects and its correlation with functional mobility, measured using Timed Up and Go (TUG) test. Thirty-three subjects aged 60 years and above were analyzed in this study.
