โ€ข a population level
(Hillsdon & Thorogood, 1996)
โ€ข for sedentary adults (Ogilvie et al, 2007)
โ€ข

Combining pedometer with an
intervention toolkit on physical activity
did no difference in Denmark.
(Petersen et al. 2012)

WCPT-AWP Congress 2013
Whatโ€™s Next
Consider physical behavious not only physical activity
โ€œNumber of steps or walking duration may not be a good
estimator of time being active, and that a considerable
underestimation may occur.โ€
(Bussmann & van den Berg-Emon 2013)

Need for multi-sectorial interventions

Consider context and beliefs

Editor's Notes

  1. The prevalence of phyasical inactivity is considered very high all over the world, but countries vary and we can see that the high-income and upper-middle income countries have the higher risk, including Saudi Arabia.
  2. For that reason, the WHO has launched the Global strategy on Diet, physical activity and health (DPAS) in order to tackle these lifestyle modifiable issues to reduce the burden of NCD
  3. Saudi Arabia is one of the EMRO countries who embraced this global strategy, and the Ministry of Health held an international conference on healthy lifestyle and NCD in the Arab world.
  4. Unfortunately, numerous studies have reported low levels of physical activity among the Saudi population. Unfortunately the literature suggests an alarming level of physical inactivity among the Saudi population, predisposing our society to health problems. However, the majority of studies conducted on the Saudi society focus on either male population or children and adolescents.
  5. Therefore, the primary focus of this study is females, and u are probably thinking that I am so biased, and in part I am but there is a good scientific reason to back me up and that is: The Saudi Female Population warrants special attention. To begin with, the literature suggests a specific gender-based consideration when making recommendations to promote physical activity (White et al., 2005). Thus, intervention and motivation programs should be customized to suit the individualsโ€™ needs with gender as a primary consideration. In particular, prevalence of obesity related to sedentary life style has been escalating among Saudi females. Therefore, it is necessary to understand how social factors imposed upon Saudi women affect womenโ€™s health and wellness.
  6. Subsequently, Clinical practitioners often prescribe physical activity as an essential component of managing many health conditions. And an excellent manifestation of this trend is the recently launched HILSTM.However, medical advice alone has not been effective in promoting physical activity.On the other hand, much has been published on means to promote physical activity. Yet, there is no universally accepted method due to the multiple factors that influence physical activity. And the reason is the complex and multiple factors that affect PA, in otherwords, what we refer to here as correlates of physical activity.
  7. The most advocated form of physical activity is walking. Walking is suggested as the mode of activity most likely to increase physical activity at a population level, particularly for sedentary adults.Walking behavior has received recent attention based on its physical (Manson et al., 2002) and psychological (Blacklock, Rhodes, & Brown, 2007) health benefits and its lower intensity, high accessibility, ease to physically perform, and low cost in comparison to other PAs (Duncan & Mummery, 2005; Rhodes, Brown, & McIntyre, 2006).Pedometers are considered valid and reliable tools with which to measure physical activity (Tudor-Locke, 2004)Recently, the use of small electronic devices, known as pedometers, has been considered an objective measure of physical activity.
  8. This poster is a source of joy and pride, because it was designed by a saudi female artist that volunteered to help us, and its release was revolutionary.
  9. Workers = (administrative jobs, academics, private sector workers, etc) (e.g., heart disease) (e.g., heart disease)
  10. In a comparison of five electronic pedometers, the Yamax most accurately recorded the number of steps taken (distance), had the most consistency between units, and was the most accurate (Bassett et al., 1996).
  11. The intervention was in consideration with the results of preious work on correlates of physical activities among Saudi women. Focused on emphasizing self-efficacy and internal locus of control.
  12. Average step count over 8 weeks period
  13. Social constraints, limited places for women to practice physical activity, Hot climateOn a global level, data from the WHO have shown that physical inactivity is more prevalent among girls and women than their male counterparts, regardless of their country of origin.51 Some of the factors reported by WHO that hinder the participation of women in physical activity and their access to health care include lower income, greater workload in the home and in care-giving roles, limited mobility, and cultural restrictions
  14. One-way repeated measure analysis of variance revealed that there were no significant differences between groups (experimental vs control) nor across the two assessment times (baseline and post-intervention) for either physical activity levels (i.e. step-count) or general health outcomes. The Wilksโ€™ Lambda test indicated that there were no significant interactions between the groups and time for any variables.
  15. A population-based randomized controlled trial of the effect of combining a pedometer with an intervention toolkit on physical activity among individuals with low levels of physical activity or fitness.No significant difference in all parameters More walking time among older adultshttp://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22200586This study needs to be interpreted within the context of its limitations. First, the sampling frame of Riyadh may not generalize to other regions.although the samples obtained for this research were representative of the Riyadh adult population in terms of sociodemographics, the subsequent attrition rate was high. One limitation of the study is a small homogeneous self-selected sample.Subjects who volunteered were already involved in regular physical activity, were more likely to be married, more likely to have higher family income, and tended to have higher self-efficacy (Speck & Looney, 2001)
