Patients will be instructed to meet the daily step count goal displayed on their fitness tracker. If goal is not being met, study team will intervene and reinforce the importance of meeting this goal.

Solutions to such challenges may be offered by the coordinator or necessary provider, such as a dietitian, when applicable.
