ABSTRACT
The elderly are an age group vulnerable to various health problems due to the aging process. Decreased physical function, reduced muscle strength, and an increased risk of non-communicable diseases such as hypertension and diabetes mellitus are common among the elderly. One way to maintain the health of the elderly is through regular physical activity, such as elderly exercise. This community service activity aims to increase awareness and participation of the elderly in physical activity through an elderly exercise program as a promotive and preventive measure for maintaining health. Implementation methods include health education on the importance of physical activity for the elderly, regular implementation of elderly exercise, and evaluation of the elderly's health condition before and after the activity. The results of the activity indicate an increase in elderly participation in physical activity and an increase in elderly awareness of the importance of maintaining health. The elderly exercise program has been proven effective in improving physical fitness and quality of life for the elderly.
