NCT01432327
Brief Summary:
The aim of the study is to assess an increase of daily physical activity from electronic self-monitoring, to compare these values to the 10.000 step program, and to compare with real-time feedback with and without guidance from a Personal Coach.
Detailed Description:
The purpose of this intervention study is to determine the effectiveness of continuous self-monitoring and real-time feedback from the SenseWear Armband (BodyMedia) alone and in combination with Personal Coaching to enhance physical activity and influence consciousness about its own physical activity patterns over a 12-month period in sedentary Flemish employees. The investigators hypothesize that the use of the feedback will increase awareness and subsequent physical activity levels of inactive office workers. Another hypothesizes is that the weekly meeting with a Personal Coach will add a controlling element and therefore employees of the 'coaching group' will have a higher physical activity level at the end of the intervention period compared to the other groups.
