Women age 65 and over accounted for over half (56%) of the U.S. population in 2014 (Federal Interagency Forum on Aging Research, (FIFARS), 2016). Only 19 % of U.S. adult women follow the 2018 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans (PAGA) recommendations (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services [HHS], 2018). Failure to meet recommended levels of aerobic physical activity is associated with 10% of all premature mortality and anticipated annual health care costs of $117 billion (HHS, 2018). The purpose of this study was to explore the lived experience of body image perception and successful aging beliefs of senior women who exercise a minimum of the recommended 150 minutes per week. The human becoming theory of Rosemarie Parse (1992) and the phenomenological methods of Merleau-Ponty (1945) guided this study. Twelve senior women aged 65 and above, who resided in North Myrtle Beach, SC, and engaged in recommended levels of exercise participated in the study. Using semi-structured recorded interviews, study participants expressed feelings about their body image and what they believe about successful aging. Thematic analysis identified an overarching theme of continued well-being and five essential themes: (a) perception and positivity regarding body image; (b) exercise and commitment; (c) intersection of activities of daily living management and community, (d) self-contentment and positivity regarding the meaning of successful aging and physical fitness, and (e) reassurances and concerns in successful aging. The senior women were found to desire continued well-being. To achieve continued well-being, the senior women exercised at a high level, understood the importance of diet, fluids, and rest, and gained the added benefit of increased socialization. The findings of this study provided insightregarding the meaning and experiences of successful aging, body image and exercise in the everyday lives of senior women. An in depth understanding of the lived experience of aging senior women known to participate in regular exercise will inform future studies and interventions regarding the impact of exercise on senior women's health. Future research should explore senior women's health and well-being to gain further insight into this growing population and aid the development of supportive interventions and policies.
