Summary

Physical activity (PA) - understood as any bodily movement produced by skeletal muscular that requires energy expenditure, related to leisure time, for transport to get to and from places, or part of a person's work - is a powerful force for good regarding type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, fewer T2DM patients sustain the lifestyle recommendations suggested by health care professionals (HCP): 40% of patients did not follow-up on general medical recommendations regarding lifestyle changes. Using a socio-ecological approach - that aims to deal with the different levels of PA influences - may be a good solution to integrate the behaviour change techniques in health care professionals' consultations to prescribe PA efficiently.

The investigators' protocol has two aims. The primary aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of theory-driven PA intervention based on SEM among people living with T2DM. A secondary aim is to explore the feasibility and perceptions/experiences on the PA adherence process in T2DM patients while using the socio-ecological approach and to understand the HCP's viewpoint in its applicability in the Spanish Healthcare system. The investigators want to know the how, not the what, related to PA prescription.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Socioecological model apply to reduce physical activity drop out in type 2 diabetes patients

To implement this model this intervention aims to address three key elements: 1) prepare the user; 2) structure the action; and 3) design the context. These goals will be worked in each session of Nordic Walking during the warm-up and cool-down and, if necessary, during the session (as long as it's non-stop or slowing down).

BEHAVIORAL

Nordic Walking

Sessions will be progressive: the first month will long 30 minutes, the second month 35 minutes, and the third month 40 minutes (without 10 minutes warm-up and 10 minutes cool-down each session). The track will not have more than 100 accumulate high and will allow doing 5 kilometers without stopping. The meeting point will be between the Biomedical Research Park (Barcelona) and Hospital del Mar (nearby CAP Sant Joan). All sessions will be conducted by an instructor of nordic walking physiotherapists.
