Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Physical activity coachingExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
In addition to the tasks performed and feedback received by the Control arm (see above), the intervention arm will also undergo daily coaching with the goal of increasing their daily step count. Members of this arm will receive daily app notifications indicating that they have activities to complete. They will be provided with 5 exercise options:
Low intensity activity options (i.e. walking in the part, bicycling to the store, etc.).
Moderate to vigorous endurance activity, performed on their own (running, bicycling, rowing, swimming, etc)
An on demand "group session" video
No exercise today
Alternate physical activity -- the participants will have the option to record alternate physical activity that they performed
Participants will be asked to indicate if they completed the exercise with three options:
Yes
No
Request for a different exercise to be shown
Group II: ControlActive Control1 Intervention
At the end of this initial week of monitoring, participants will be randomized to a control group or an intervention group. Both groups will be followed for three months, with outcome measurements collected monthly. Both arms will continue to receive their seven day physical activity assessment using the phone's core motion sensors and HealthKit/ Google Health step count. Both groups will also be prompted to complete monthly fitness tests: the 6-minute walk test, a 12 minute run test, and the Tecumseh step test.
