About this study
Official title: Active Over 45: A Step-up Jogging Program in Inactive Female Hospital Staff Aged 45+: Feasability, Role of Motivation and Sustained Benefit
Background: Inactive individuals face motivational obstacles for becoming and staying physically active. Therefore, sustainable physical activity promotion programs tailored to reach inactive individuals are needed.
Purpose: to test the effect (long and short-term) and feasibility of a training program and to evaluate the association between the baseline motivation to become physical activity and the change in physical activity and performance.
Design: uncontrolled trail Setting/participants: inactive, female hospital staff aged 45 and older from the University Hospital Zurich Intervention: 3-month step-up jogging program Main outcome measures: physical performance and level of physical activity
