Each participant must reach a certain number of daily steps with a progressive goal adjusted to the number of steps from the previous week. The goal is set considering the superior number to the median of steps of the preceding week.~Weekly combined exercise sessions (aerobic + strength exercise) 2 sessions of 60 minutes per week in a 12-week program.
