HOME-EX

Motivational Counseling: The first session will be an hour face-to-face interview to establish a rapport with subjects, assess motives and competence. The rest will be 30 min. phone calls to assess week's performance and agree on an action plan for next 2 weeks. Exercise Intervention: Using the average number of steps for each subject from their baseline assessment, the targeted number of steps the subject needs to walk every day will be calculated. The individualized strength training exercise will target the upper and lower body. If possible, they will be encouraged to progressively increase from their individual baseline sets and repetitions to a maximum of 4 sets of 15 repetitions for each exercise
