Background and Purpose: The coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) outbreak has caused a severe crisis in the world. Authorities in different countries had been forced to enact laws to prevent its spread, which has led to many psychological and interpersonal injuries. Physical activity is known as one of the influential factors in improving the physical and mental condition of people; Therefore, this study aimed to determine the effectiveness of aerobic exercise on corona anxiety and interpersonal communication skills in working women aged 30-40 years with COVID-19 in Tehran.

Method: The present study is an experimental study with a pre-test-post-test with a control group design. The general population studied in this study included all working women aged 30 to 40 years in Tehran who were working in 2022. The sample consisted of 60 working women aged 30 to 40 years in Tehran who were selected from the 2nd district of Tehran by available and voluntary sampling method. Corona Disease Anxiety Scale (Alipour et al., 2020), and the youth development competencies scale (Fetro, Rhodes, Hey, 2010) were used to collect data.

Results: Based on the findings, the mean of the experimental group in the components of interpersonal communication skills (development and maintenance of communication, empathy, communication skills, and conflict resolution) has increased sharply after aerobic exercise, and the average score of anxiety has decreased.

Conclusion: The results indicate that aerobic exercise is a suitable method to reduce corona anxiety and improve interpersonal communication skills of working women with coronavirus disease.
