- Brief Summary
The Together Everyone Achieve More (TEAM) Physical Activity trial evaluates the efficacy of a group-based social affiliation intervention (vs. a standard group-delivered physical activity comparison program) for increasing physical activity among inactive African American women. Using a group cohort randomized design implemented at community centers across five years, the primary aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the 10-week TEAM-PA group-based intervention (vs. comparison program) on increasing daily total physical activity from baseline to post-intervention and maintenance at a 6-month follow-up.

Group Intervention Description Intervention Intervention This group will receive a 10-week group-based intervention program. Comparison Comparison The group will receive a 10-week group-based comparison program.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Total Physical Activity Baseline, post-intervention (10 weeks), and 6 months post-intervention Average minutes of total physical activity (PA) per day; Objective assessments of total PA will be obtained with ActiGraph accelerometers. Participants will wear the monitor on the non-dominant wrist for 7 consecutive days. The investigators will evaluate whether there is a change in minutes of total PA per day from baseline to 10 weeks and maintenance at 6 months post-intervention, and whether there are group differences between the intervention and comparison programs.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Percentage meeting national guidelines for weekly moderate to vigorous physical activity Baseline, post-intervention (10 weeks), and 6 months post-intervention Percentage of participants with at least 150 minutes of moderate physical activity and/or 75 minutes of vigorous physical activity per week; Objective assessments of minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity will be obtained with ActiGraph accelerometers. The investigators will evaluate whether there is a change in the percentage of participants meeting national guidelines from baseline to 10 weeks and maintenance at 6 months post-intervention, and whether there are group differences between the intervention and comparison programs.
Light Physical Activity Baseline, post-intervention (10 weeks), and 6 months post-intervention Average minutes of light physical activity (PA) per day; Objective assessments of light PA will be obtained with ActiGraph accelerometers. The investigators will evaluate whether there is a change in daily minutes of light PA from baseline to 10 weeks and maintenance at 6 months post-intervention, and whether there are group differences between the intervention and comparison programs.
Sedentary Behavior Baseline, post-intervention (10 weeks), and 6 months post-intervention Average minutes of sedentary behavior per day; Objective assessments of sedentary behavior will be obtained with ActiGraph accelerometers. The investigators will evaluate whether there is a change in sedentary behavior from baseline to 10 weeks and maintenance at 6 months post-intervention, and whether there are group differences between the intervention and comparison programs.
Body Mass Index (BMI) Baseline, post-intervention (10 weeks), and 6 months post-intervention Height (cm) and weight (kg) will be measured using a stadiometer and medical-grade scale. Scores will be used to calculate BMI (kg/m\^2). The investigators will evaluate whether there is a change in BMI from baseline to 10 weeks and maintenance at 6 months post-intervention, and whether there are group differences between the intervention and comparison programs.
Blood Pressure Baseline, post-intervention (10 weeks), and 6 months post-intervention Systolic and diastolic blood pressure will be measured using an automatic blood pressure machine. The investigators will evaluate whether there is a change in blood pressure from baseline to 10 weeks and maintenance at 6 months post-intervention, and whether there are group differences between the intervention and comparison programs.
Two-Minute Walk Test (Walking Speed) Baseline, post-intervention (10 weeks), and 6 months post-intervention Starting from a standing position, participants are asked to walk as far as they can in a safe manner for two minutes over a flat out and back 50 feet course. The distance traveled to the nearest foot is recorded.
