Study Summary

This trial explores if peer support and health coaching help inactive South Asian Indians become more physically active. It also looks at how it affects their social support, self-efficacy, and physical activity.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for South Asian Indian women living in Houston, Texas who lead a sedentary lifestyle and are physically able to do moderate exercise. Participants must own a smartphone compatible with Fitbit, be willing to use the app/device, text regularly, have blood pressure below 160/100 mm Hg or medical clearance, and not be currently pregnant or in another PA program.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study tests if health coaching via Zoom calls and social support can help increase physical activity among participants. It includes using a Fitbit monitor and receiving electronic newsletters. The goal is to see if this approach boosts their weekly moderate-to-vigorous physical activity levels.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since the intervention involves increased physical activity through guidance rather than medication or invasive procedures, side effects may include typical exercise-related issues such as muscle soreness or fatigue but will vary based on individual fitness levels.
