Material and Method: 35 individuals with CP over the age of 16 (22.6 ± 5.5 years) were included in study. A questionnaire has been prepared by researchers to investigate participation of individuals in LTPA. Individuals were asked whether they did any LTPA. If so, the type, frequency, intensity, duration were questioned. Results: It was determined 91.4% of individuals were interested in some form of LTPA and they were interested in 8 activities (home exercises, walking, swimming, fitness, exercise bike, bowling, cycling and football) out of 14 activities offered to them, 74.2% of them do this activity once a week, and 65.7% of them want to get interested new activities but couldn’t perform due to various barriers. Discussion: It was demonstrated that diversity and frequency of activities in adolescents and adults with CP were inadequate and interventions aimed at increasing community participation, and diversity and frequency of LTPA in adolescent and adult CP patients are needed. }, number={1}
