Abstract

The high elderly population in Indonesia encourages the need for efforts to create healthy and independent elderly. One of the impacts of the high population of elderly people is a decrease in the musculoskeletal system, a decrease in fat free mass or an increase in fat mass, which causes a decrease in muscle strength. Physical activity and physical exercise in the elderly are the main strategies that can play a role in preventing and slowing down the decline in function caused by aging and prevent the elderly from getting a stroke. This Community Service activity aims to increase community knowledge and skills in preventing and using bobath exercises in the elderly.
