Evaluating the Feasibility and Acceptability of Prescribed Diurnal Exercise Timing

This pilot study seeks to learn more about people's experiences with being asked to exercise consistently at a specific time of the day (e.g., in the morning) and whether a certain exercise time is most helpful for becoming more active. All participants will be asked to walk for at least 15 minutes per day at a specified time of day (morning, evening, or time of choice) for 3 weeks each (9 weeks of walking total). Each 3-week exercise period will be separated by 2 weeks with no exercise goal. Participants will be emailed a brief survey about barriers/facilitators to exercise each night during the exercise periods and will receive a weekly email that provides support and encouragement for increasing physical activity. Participants will also wear a physical activity monitor on their waist each day during the study to measure physical activity. Participants will complete questionnaires about their experiences at the end of the study.
