About Agestrong
Agestrong is a group strength and balance program for older people. The classes are run by trained leaders and use dumbbells, ankle weights and therabands to work the major muscle groups in the body. Chair-based classes are available for those who require them.
Agestrong is run in partnership with Mornington Peninsula Shire, Frankston City Council, Belgravia Leisure, Langwarrin Community Centre and Karingal Place.
Due to the current Covid Peak, face to face Agestrong programs run by Peninsula Health will not be available until 2022.
New referrals are unable to be accepted at this time.
In the meantime, the Home Exercise Program below may be helpful.
Home Exercise Program
We have developed an exercise program for people to use at home. You can use items around your home as weights e.g. milk cartons filled with rice or tins.
