Experimental Treatment

Active Control

Group I: Decrease Sedentary Time + Increase MVPAExperimental Treatment1 Intervention

Participants in this group will receive a 12-week, social cognitive theory-based intervention targetting reduction of daily sedentary time. This information will be delivered to them in the form of Zoom workshops, a program workbook, personalized step count goals, and a private social media page. The aim of this component will be to have participants displace their daily sedentary time with light-intensity physical activity, such as casual walking. The second component of this intervention will be increasing participants' weekly MVPA engagement. Participants will participate in 1 live, virtual aerobics-based exercise class per week and complete 2 additional sessions on their own time. Participants will build up to exercising 150 minutes/week (the federal physical activity recommendations).

Group II: Increase MVPA onlyActive Control1 Intervention

Participants in this group will only receive the MVPA-promoting component (which will be the same delivery as the intervention group). Participants in this arm will participate in 1 live, virtual aerobics-based exercise class per week (held separately from the intervention group) and will complete 2 additional exercise classes on their own time. Participants will build up to exercising 150 minutes/week (the federal physical activity recommendations).
