    Objective: The study was to determine the physical activity (PA) levels of adults socially isolated at home due to the coronavirus disease-2019 pandemic and to search the effects of the video-based exercise program (VBEP). Material and Methods: Healthy individuals (n=128; 90F, 38M) aged 40-60 years have participated through online questionnaire software in social media. Participants were randomly divided into as study (n=65) and control (n=63). Their PA level, quality of life (QoL), emotional state, sleep quality, and functional status were evaluated by International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), Nottingham Health Profile (NHP), Beck Depression and Anxiety Inventory (BDI) (BAI), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and timed up-go test, respectively. Specially prepared 30-minute exercise videos (breathing, warm-up, aerobics, strengthening-cooldown exercises) were to the study group according to their PA levels (low, medium, high) determined by IPAQ, they were asked to perform these exercises daily for 6 weeks. No exercise program was given for the control group. Results: Groups were similar in terms of sociodemographic measures except for education level (p>0.05). In the study group all parameters and the control group only in the BDI, BAI, and NHP emotional reactions subscale scores (p<0.05) were significant. In group comparison, a significant difference was found in favor of the study group in IPAQ, BAI, PSQI, and NHP scores (except social isolation subscale score) (p<0.05). Conclusion: During social isolation, we found that VBEP is effective in improving the level of PA, QoL, sleep quality, emotional and functional status of the individuals. Therefore, we consider it effective in terms of preventive health. Also, VBEP can be used as an alternative method in the adult population.
