Experimental Treatment

Group I: Waitlist ControlExperimental Treatment1 Intervention

In the waitlist control arm, the men will not receive any intervention for 16-weeks. After the 16-week assessment, men randomized to this arm will crossover to the intervention arm.

Group II: Immediate Lifestyle programExperimental Treatment1 Intervention

The Intervention will be conducted in cohorts of 15-20. We anticipate there will be 5-6 cohorts over the course of the study. Men assigned to the Guided Lifestyle Program will participate in twice weekly sessions - the first weekly session will be 120 minutes in length with the first hour addressing lifestyle change education and strategies, the second hour will be supervised exercise with strength training. The second weekly session will be a one-hour supervised exercise session with strength training. Men will also receive 2-3 text messages weekly. They will also receive a participant informational binder with health and exercise information and tools as directed by ACS nutrition and physical activity guidelines.
