Abstract

Introduction: Physical activity plays a crucial role in improving public health and preventing non-communicable diseases such as hypertension, obesity, and diabetes mellitus. However, based on national health data (Riskesdas, 2018), around 33.5% of Indonesians remain physically inactive. The community service activity titled “Sadar Bugar: Senam Massal Sehat Masyarakat Kedawung dengan Latihan Aktivitas Fisik” aimed to raise public awareness about the importance of regular physical activity as part of a healthy lifestyle. Method: This program applied a community-based participatory approach involving 250 participants from various age groups in Kedawung District, Cirebon Regency. The activities included group exercise sessions, brief health education, basic health checks (blood pressure, weight, BMI), and interactive discussions. Result: The results showed high enthusiasm among participants and improved understanding of the benefits of regular physical exercise. The community also expressed a commitment to continue such activities regularly. Conclusion: This program supports the Healthy Living Community Movement (GERMAS) and demonstrates that collaboration among academic institutions, health workers, and the public can effectively promote sustainable healthy behaviors.
