The purpose of this study it to determine if a promotora-led intervention that takes a comprehensive, multi-level, community-based approach to promoting physical activity (PA) is effective among a particularly underserved segment of Latinas. We hypothesize that Latinas in the promotora-led PA Intervention will significantly increase minutes per week of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) compared to Latinas in the attention-control group.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Physical Activity | Experimental | Weekly promotora-led group sessions on physical activity (16 weeks) and followed by monthly telephone counseling and newsletters during the 24 week maintenance period. Promotoras will also implement environmental change strategies to increase the number of PA program offerings available to study participants. |
|
| Community Health and Safety | Placebo Comparator | Weekly promotora-led group sessions on home safety/first aid (16 weeks) followed by and monthly generic health education materials and informational telephone calls during the 24 week maintenance period. |
|
| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Health education | Behavioral | Group health education sessions delivered by a promotora approximately 90 minutes in length. In the PA arm, health education incorporates at least 30 minutes group exercise. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change from baseline Moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) | Minutes per week of MVPA is assessed a baseline and immediate post-intervention (16 weeks) using accelerometry. The primary outcome is the amount of change between baseline and immediate post-intervention. | 16 weeks |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change from baseline in Physical Fitness | The "2-minute step in place" test will be used to assess the amount of change in cardiorespiratory fitness (steps/minute) between baseline and immediate post-intervention (16 weeks). | 16 weeks |
| Weight maintenance (Percent Body Fat) |

Weight maintenance is defined as a change in % body fat less than ± 3% of baseline. |
| 16 weeks |
| Weight maintenance (Body Mass Index) | Weight maintenance is defined as a change in body mass index (kg/m2) less than ± 3% of baseline. | 16 weeks |
| Weight maintenance (Waist Circumference) | Weight maintenance is defined as a change in waist circumference less than ± 3% of baseline. | 16 weeks |
| Change from baseline Moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) | Minutes per week of MVPA is assessed a baseline and 24 weeks post-intervention (40 weeks) using accelerometry. The amount of change between baseline and 24 weeks post-intervention will be used to determine if the behavior was maintained. | 40 weeks |
