Summary

This study targets older adults (ages 60 and over) who are overweight (body mass index 25-40) with impaired fasting glucose (100 - 125). We propose a three-year, randomized controlled clinical trial (n=300) to determine the effect of a one-year physical activity counseling intervention on glucose metabolism and secondary outcomes compared to usual care.
