- EXPERIMENTAL
- label
- Arm I (home-based walking program, resistance training)
- description
- 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.

- description
- 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.
