What is the impact of the in school walking trail? What is the impact of giving women pedometers on their stage of change towards exercise? Can we help women overcome barriers to physical activity? What barriers to exercise do our women most commonly face? Will our participants significantly increase their physical activity over the course of a 7 week program?
