•Study participants will be required to be 50-69 years, insufficiently active (less than 150 minutes of moderate physical activity per week), and satisfying the following International Diabetes Federation metabolic syndrome criteria: central obesity (waist circumference greater than 94 cm men or greater than 80 cm women [Europids, Sub-Saharan Africans, Eastern Mediterranean, Middle East]; greater than 90cm men or greater than 80cm women [South Asians, Chinese, Japanese]); plus any two of: raised triglyceride level (greater than 1.7 mM, or treatment for this); reduced HDL-cholesterol (less than 1.03 mM in males and less than 1.29 mM in females, or treatment for this); raised blood pressure (systolic equal to 130 mmHg or diastolic equal to 85 mmHg, or treatment of previously diagnosed hypertension); raised fasting plasma glucose (equal to 5.6 mM). To be at risk of metabolic syndrome, only one instead of two of the above parameters must be satisfied in addition to central obesity.

•The following exclusion criteria will apply: previous diagnosis of diabetes mellitus (other than gestational diabetes); receiving treatment to lower blood glucose; on a weight loss diet or having weight fluctuations of greater than 5% within the past 6 months; involvement in another physical activity program; or a partner/individual residing in the same household as another participant already recruited for the study (to avoid contamination).
