N2  - The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of aerobic training on Physical work capacity among elderlyForty female elderly subjects participated in this study their age ranged from 65 to 75 years oldThe subjects of the study participated in moderate aerobic training calculated as 65in hundred to 75in hundred of their pre determined maximum heart rateThis program was applied three times per week for two monthsCardiopulmonary exercise test was conducted for all subjects before and after the training program to determine the physical work capacity related indices , and their hemodynamic response to exerciseThe results of this study revealed improvement in the physical work capacity indices as significant increase in the VO2max , increase anaerobic threshold and significant increase of the forced vital capacityThis in addition to the significant increase of the maximum heart rate , decrease of the resting heart rate , resting and maximum systolic blood pressure
