Background: The aging population and the rise in chronic diseases have become major public health concerns worldwide. These challenges highlight the need for effective and accessible health promotion strategies. Remote exercise programs offer a feasible solution, but empirical evidence for their effectiveness in elderly individuals with chronic conditions remains limited. Methods: A one-group pretest-posttest design was used to evaluate the impact of a 12-week remote exercise program on the physical function in older adults with chronic diseases. A total of 30 participants were recruited from a community welfare center in Korea. The intervention consisted of weekly live exercise sessions conducted via the Zoom platform and guided by a trained instructor. The program included chair-based strength training, upper and lower extremity resistance exercises, flexibility exercises, and breathing exercises, all designed to enhance overall mobility, strength, and endurance. The physical function was measured before and after the intervention using chair stand repetitions and grip strength (right and left hands). Results: After completing the program, participants showed significant improvements in chair stand repetitions and right-hand grip strength. Although left-hand grip strength also increased, the change was not statistically significant. Participants additionally reported feeling more confident in performing daily activities, experiencing enhanced physical well-being, and perceiving improvements in overall functional ability. Conclusion: These findings suggest that remote exercise programs can effectively improve physical function and support the well-being of older adults with chronic diseases. This approach may provide a practical alternative to in-person interventions, especially during periods of restricted mobility, public health emergencies, or social distancing. Future research should explore long-term effects, adherence, and the scalability of such programs to broader populations.
