Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Clinician arm (period 3) & Patient arm (active - HR monitor, with feedback)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
The same participants will receive 1 week of HR monitoring with visual feedback during group sessions. The investigators will monitor overall HR response, mean time HR and time in target zone, RPE, and clinician behavior to HR monitoring with visual feedback.
Group II: Clinician Arm (period 1) - behavior prior to HR interventionActive Control1 Intervention
The investigators will monitor baseline behavior of providers in regards to sessions and how frequently heart rate (HR), rating of perceived exertion (RPE) and intensity is monitored and subsequent sessions are performed/modified through observation.
Group III: Clinician arm (period 2) & Patient arm (control - HR monitor, no feedback)Active Control1 Intervention
Participants will receive 1 week of HR monitoring in their group sessions where visual feedback is not provided during group session. The investigators will monitor overall HR response, mean HR and time in target HR zone, RPE and clinician behavior to HR monitor on patient during these sessions.
