Lymfit exercise intervention
Participants randomized to this arm will be allocated a pre-registered Inspire II / Charge IV model Fitbit. The kinesiologist of the study will meet with the participants for a baseline fitness assessment. The kinesiologist will examine the baseline physical activity levels, fitness level and sedentary behaviours of the participants, to design a personalized exercise prescription. Within one week after the baseline fitness assessment, the kinesiologist will contact the participants to discuss the exercise prescription. Every two weeks there-after, the kinesiologist will follow up with the participants via videoconferencing to discuss their progress and to modify or advance their exercise prescriptions as needed. Participants will be followed-up at 6 months and 12 months.
