Testing a Brief Motivational Intervention to Increase Physical Activity for Cancer Survivors

"The study includes a 3-component motivational intervention based on the Theory of Planned Behavior. The components include motivational interviewing (MI); mobile health monitoring; and action planning.~MI is used to build a positive attitude towards physical activity (PA). Mobile health monitoring will be conducted with a Fitbit to monitor steps per day. The last component of the intervention includes action planning to design a PA program that fits their abilities and lifestyle. The research team will develop a PA grid that includes aerobic, strength, and flexibility PA options. The PA grid provides an opportunity to personalize the action plan by choosing from a 'menu' to match interests. Following the in-person baseline visit, participants will be called approximately every 2 weeks (4-5 phone contacts) during the 3-month intervention period to review and update their action plan."
