Summary

chronic musculoskeletal disorders (CMDs) are a hugh burden to healthcare wordwide. Physical activity can improve outcomes related with CMDs, however dose response relationships are poorly understood. Therefore, to date it has not been possible to formulate general recommendations on optimal therapeutic quantity of physical activity. Furthermore, a complexity of possible facilitators and barriers has been stated to limit effective improvement of physical activity in therapy and currently applied low to moderate exercise intensities in rehabilitation could be below the required level to achieve optimal therapy outcomes.

The primary objective of this study is to get insight on the impact of the intensity of the physical activity level on pain and disability in persons with CMDs. Second, the underlying facilitators and barriers to perform physical activity (at different intensities) during daily living will be evaluated. Third, the impact of the intensity of the physical activity level on the motivation to perform a rehabilitation program will be evaluated.
