Experimental Treatment

Active Control

Group I: Arm III (HIIT, resistance training)Experimental Treatment5 Interventions

Participants wear Fitbit and attend supervised HIIT exercise sessions 3 days per week over 12 weeks. Participants receive resistance training as in Arm I.

Group II: Arm II (home-based Zumba program, resistance training)Experimental Treatment6 Interventions

Participants wear Fitbit and receive a XBOX system and the video game to strive for at least 3 50-minute medium or high intensity classes per week over 12 weeks. Participants may also take 20-minute classes or a mixture of 50- and 20-minute classes to meet the target. Participants receive resistance training as in Arm I.

Group III: Arm I (home-based walking program, resistance training)Experimental Treatment7 Interventions

Participants wear Fitbit, receive home-based DVD containing instructions to warm-up and cool-down, and brisk walk 30 minutes per day 5 days a week in order to achieve the 150 minutes per week of moderate intensity exercise. Participants also receive resistance training by watching the illustration video and completing 6 total blocks of 2-week per block exercise using the Thera-BandR exercise bands.

Group IV: Arm V (usual physical activity)Active Control1 Intervention

Participants wear Fitbit and continue their usual physical activity over 12 weeks.

Group V: Arm IV (supervised moderate intensity walking program)Active Control1 Intervention

Participants wear Fitbit and attend supervised moderate intensity walking sessions weekly for 50-60 each over 12 weeks. Participants undergo resistance training as in Arm I.
