Abstract. Ageing is a natural process associated to physiological deterioration. Moreover, the feelings are also affected by ageing process. Physical exercise has showed to be an useful tool to fight against changes of ageing process. Both Multiple Intelligence Theory and Intelligence XXI manual were used to develop physical, cognitive and emotional factors. The present study analyzes the effects of a multicomponent physical exercise program on fitness, self-esteem, anxiety and depression on older adults (n=70) from Almería province. This investigation follows a quantitative design where the measurements from an experimental group are compared before (pre-test) and after (post-test). The length of the intervention’ program was eight months. Physical fitness, self-esteem, anxiety and depression were evaluated by Senior Fitness Test (SFT), Rosenberg’s Self-Esteem Scale and The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HAD), respectively. Results reflect significant improvements on agility or dynamic balance, self-esteem, anxiety and depression (p<.05), as well as on cardiorespiratory capacity (p<.01). In conclusion, this study indicates that a multicomponent physical exercise program improves some fitness parameters, self-esteem, anxiety and depression in older adults from Almeria province.
