Divergent weak-coupling perturbation expansions for physical quantities can be converted into sequences of uniformly and exponentially fast converging approximations. This is possible with the help of an additional variational parameter to be optimized order by order. The uniformity of the convergence for any coupling strength allows us to take all expressions directly to the strong-coupling limit, yielding a simple calculation scheme for the coefficients of convergent strong-coupling expansions. As an example, we determine these coefficients for the ground state energy of the anharmonic oscillator up to 22nd order with a precision of about 20 digits.
