Overview

Brief Summary

The overall aim of the proposed project is to improve muscle strength in older adults with possible sarcopenia by promoting home-based progressive resistance exercise. The target population for health talks is community-dwelling older adults. A Three monthly home-visits and weekly phone calls will be made. A waitlist randomised controlled trial will be conducted to evaluate effectiveness, and qualitative feedback will be collected from participants. A pilot study will be conducted first.
