Brief summary (from the registry)

The aim of the study is to evaluate the effects of aerobic exercise combined with core stabilisation training (CSE) in elderly individuals with chronic non-specific low back pain (CNSBP). The effects on functional capacity, quality of life, fall risk, functional status and physical performance will be investigated. Core stabilisation exercises will be applied to both groups. The aerobic exercise intervention group will receive aerobic exercise in addition to core stabilisation exercises. The evaluations will be performed before and after the treatment and the treatment is planned for 3 days a week for 8 weeks. The 6-minute walk test (6MWT) will be used to assess functional capacity, Visual Analogue Scale will be used to assess pain intensity, Oswestry Scale will be used to assess functional status in terms of low back pain, Biodex balance device will be used to assess fall risk, Beck Depression Scale will be used to assess depression, Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale will be used to assess kinesiophobia.
