Summary

Sedentarism is the fourth risk factor for worldwide mortality and morbility. Considering the high prevalence of sedentarism (57.0%) and obesity (30.5%) in Azores islands (Portugal), local primary health care (PHC) services should support the implementation of complementary interventions and the development of medical research in the area of active lifestyle promotion.

This study aims to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of a 6-months functional training program (FTP), which includes a group nutrition counseling, in sedentary users of Ponta Delgada Health Center (PDHC), compared to a waiting list control.
