Summary

Most adults do not achieve the US aerobic physical activity (PA) guidelines (≥150 minutes/week of at least moderate intensity PA). Inadequate PA is considered a major risk factor for cardio-metabolic diseases and other poor health outcomes. Recommendations now endorse PA in reducing risk for certain diseases. Unfortunately, low PA levels are seldom identified and treated within clinical practice. This study will build on previous prevention efforts by focusing on the identifying and treating low PA levels in adults clinical care patients and referring them to an intervention that is feasible for delivery through clinical care.
