Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Every time participants receive diet and lifestyle advice (week 5, 8 and 11), they are asked to formulate implementation intentions describing when and how they plan to implement the received advice. After a three-week period, prior to receiving new advice, participants will be asked to score the degree of compliance with the implementation intention they formulated on a 7-points Likert scale (very low-very high). By monitoring the degree of compliance during the intervention period, both trends within individuals and between groups can be observed.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Measures of muscle health status including physical performance, handgrip strength, sedentary behaviour, quality of life, parameters of metabolic health status, protein and lipid profiles in responses to a challenge test, parameters of glycaemic control and patient specific complaints will be measured both at baseline and at the end to identify the degree of variation in this population.
