Overview
Brief Summary
The objective of this study is to design and refine an activity support program, called Movámonos, for adults with overweight or obesity who speak Spanish. The primary outcomes are feasibility and acceptability of the Movámonos physical activity support program.
Detailed Description
The purpose of this study is to pilot test a 12-week physical activity support program, called Movámonos, designed for Spanish-speaking adults with overweight or obesity. Movámonos includes four intervention components: 1) weekly 60-minute group-based classes, 2) 3, 45-minute individualized support sessions, 3) group fitness classes, and 4) mental guided imagery sessions. Participants will be asked to build their physical activity levels up to 150 minutes/week. The primary outcome is to evaluate the program's acceptability and feasibility from the participant perspective.
