Web-based Muscle-strengthening and Aerobic Physical Activity Intervention for Latinas

The disproportionately low physical activity (PA) in Latinas, particularly muscle-strengthening activities, and related chronic diseases (e.g., obesity, diabetes, cancer) signifies an urgent public health concern. To address the lack of interventions promoting muscle-strengthening activities exclusively for Latinas, the investigators are testing the preliminary efficacy of a culturally and linguistically relevant, web-based aerobic plus muscle-strengthening PA intervention in this at-risk population. The web-based intervention provides a more comprehensive and highly disseminable approach for reducing PA-related health disparities in Latinas.
