The purpose of this study is to determine how a resistance exercise program with an elastic band affects the elderly.Elderly subjects were studied for 12 weeks to determine the program's effect on depression, stress, and autonomic balance.Methods: There were 30 subjects in the experimental group and 31 subjects in the control group.The experimental group participated in resistance exercise three times a week (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday) for 12 weeks, and the control group did not participate in resistance exercise for 12 weeks.Results: There was no significant difference between the two groups regarding the general characteristics and homogeneity of the dependent variable.There were significant differences in depression and stress, and parasympathetic activity was partially significant but sympathetic activity was not.
