This study was conducted to investigate the effects of 12 weeks of aquarobic exercise on health related physical fitnss(muscular strength, muscle endurance, cardiopulmonary endurance, Flexibility) of elderly people over 65 years of age. The subject of this study were 20 elderly people and analyzed health related physical fitnss(Muscular strength, Muscle endurance, Cardiopulmonary endurance, Flexibility) before and after 12weeks of aquarobic exercise.

A. Health related physical fitness change

1. Muscular strength is 21.41 ± 2.43 pre increased to 25.15 ± 2.94 post it showed a statistically significant difference (p <.001).

2. Muscle endurance is 24.60 ± 2.83 pre increased to 28.50 ±3.44 post it showed a statistically significant difference (p <.001). 3. Cardiopulmonary endurance is 113.15 ± 8.11 pre increased to 126.80 ± 8.46 post it showed a statistically significant difference (p <.001).

4. Flexibility is 9.38 ± 6.15 pre increased to 12.86 ± 6.10 post it showed a statistically significant difference (p <.001). In conclusion, the elderly concluded that the aquarobic exercise had a positive effect on health related physical fitnss(Muscular strength, Muscle endurance, Cardiopulmonary endurance, Flexibility). It is suggested that the aquarobic exercise improves the healthy aging life and quality of life by improving the function of the musculoskeletal system degraded by aging.
