  Background and Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of home exercise on quality of life and fitness indicators of women during the outbreak of coronavirus.Material and Methods: The method of the present study was quasi-experimental studies with a pretest-posttest design with two experimental and control groups. The subjects of the study were 60 non-athlete female volunteers who were randomly divided into experimental (n = 30) and control (n = 30) groups. Measurement tools included a short form of Quality of Life Questionnaire (SF-8) and physical fitness tests. The training program of the experimental group included 8 weeks of indoor sports training as a virtual training course using information and communication technologies under the Internet. Research data were analyzed using Student's t-test independent groups using Spss software. Results: Findings showed that after 8 weeks of exercise at home, the average quality of life scores of the active group was higher than those of the inactive group. Agility test scores, lower torso strength, abdominal muscle endurance and static balance increased significantly in the post-test phase (p<0.01).; However, the cardiorespiratory endurance index did not increase significantly for the experimental group in the post-test phase (p>0.05).Conclusion: Based on the research findings, it can be concluded that due to long-term home quarantine, doing sports activities at home can be a good way to use the benefits of exercise and physical activity during the outbreak of coronavirus.
