Summary

With the rapid shift to virtual care, this pilot study aims to determine the feasibility of prescribing low-duration, interval-based training through virtual care. If successful, this study will inform a larger randomized control trial to determine if the prescription of low-duration interval-based training improves chronic disease through the measurement of hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C), and weight to a greater extent than the general guideline to aim for 150 minutes of PA weekly.

High-Intensity Interval Training Physical Activity (PA) Advice

This PA intervention will be primarily self-directed by the patients themselves. Each participant will receive a 1-page double-sided handout detailing their PA protocol. Participants in this arm will receive a High-Intensity-Interval-Training (HIIT) handout (developed based on research from Dr. Martin Gibala) detailing their PA recommendations. Participants will be instructed to follow their PA protocol, while noting down which days they completed the PA using a log booklet provided to them by Dr. Fernando (their family physician). Participants will be provided with the phone number for a research assistant who is a lifestyle coach and co-investigator on this trial. If participants have questions about their PA protocol, the research assistant will respond to these over the phone.
