The implementation of physical distancing to prevent the transmission of Covid 19 will impact discomfort for all individuals, including the elderly. The elderly are forced to be in their respective homes, which causes the reduced physical activity to reduce endurance. This service aims to improve the understanding and skills of health cadres about physical activity for the elderly and the benefits obtained, including body fitness, increased endurance, and optimization of cognitive function in the elderly. The method used is to provide counseling and skills training for cadres in demonstrating the appropriate forms and types of physical activity for the elderly.
