Summary

This study will examine whether a physical activity program, specifically increasing walking steps, offered over the internet is able to increase physical activity in adults with prediabetes. The study will take place over 12 weeks. The investigators want to see if people who receive the intervention increase their physical activity more than people who do not receive the intervention. The physical activity program will include using a pedometer to track daily step counts online, set weekly goals, and receive motivational messages delivered weekly using email. The investigators are also going to collect data on waist circumference, body weight and quality of life at baseline, 12 weeks and 16 weeks after the intervention has completed to see if these change over the course of the study. The investigators will be recruiting 200 adults who have attended the Edmonton, Alberta prediabetes education class offered by Alberta Health Services, Nutrition Services and report they have prediabetes. If able to successfully increase physical activity, this study will identify a web and home-based intervention that can be offered to individuals who participate in lifestyle programs delivered in primary care settings (e.g., Edmonton prediabetes program) in both rural and urban locations.
