abstract="This study aimed to explore older adults' experience with an in-home Physio-feEdback and Exercise pRogram and explore whether the Physio-feEdback and Exercise pRogram  intervention influenced their physical activity adherence. A qualitative study  approach was employed, and data were collected using exercise logs, observations,  focus groups, and open-ended questions after the program completion. Nineteen  participants who engaged in an 8-week Physio-feEdback and Exercise pRogram  intervention participated in this study. Thematic analysis was used. Three major  concepts of the self-determination theory, including competence, relatedness, and  autonomy, were used as guidelines for coding. <br><br>RESULTS reveal three themes,  including: (a) competence-alignment of body and mind and increased awareness about  fall risk, (b) relatedness-relationship with peer coach and having fun with friends,  and (c) autonomy-integration of exercise into daily activities for staying  physically and socially active. Individuals' need for competence and autonomy can be  supported by giving physio-feedback, cognitive reframing, and peer-led exercise,  which can enhance physical activity and prevent falls.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
