After the screening procedures confirm participation in the research study. Participants randomized into Fitbit + Game + Support from a Teammate.
Participants will select a step goal, use a Fitbit to track daily activity, and select a teammate (e.g. family member or friend) who they think will help them achieve their goals.
Participants will participate a 3-month game designed to increase activity and then followed for another 1.5 months to see if their increased activity can be maintained without the game.
