Ageing is an individual process that leads to a reduction in all body functions. Decreased muscle mass and strength is considered to be one of the problems which significance increasingly rises and is one of the factors that remarkably affect the elderly's quality of life and independence. The development of sarcopenia reduces the ability to move, disrupts the performance of daily activities, potentially leads to a decrease in safety and balance in movement, which increases the possibility of falls, and thus certain injuries or fractures. Proper diet and physical activity have the best effect on preventing sarcopenia. Physical activity based primarily on strength exercises that impact the muscle mass increase and maintenance directly prevent the development of sarcopenia. Kinesiology programs and exercises must be properly designed and professionally guided. An important function in the implementation of a preventive exercise program is coordinated by a kinesiologist who, with his knowledge and experience, will be able to adapt kinesiology programs in accordance with the health status of an individual senior. In this study, the emphasis is on the importance of physical activity of the elderly and on the many positive effects of physical activity on their health. The study also presents an example of a mesocycle of kinesiology programs for preventing sarcopenia, which consists of strength and power exercises, mobility exercises, balance exercises and Nordic walking.
