What is functional age?
Functional age is how your strength, balance and capacity compare to the average for your years, rather than the number on your birthday. A body that is 'younger' than its calendar age tends to stay independent longer. This tool gives a rough estimate, not a diagnosis.
How accurate is the functional age check?
It is an educational estimate from four simple field tests, useful for getting oriented and for re-testing over time. A physiotherapist's measured baseline is more precise; use this to spot where you stand, then measure properly.
Get measured properly, then coached.
A physiotherapist-led baseline at home across KL & Selangor turns these estimates into real numbers.
