NCT03086837

Brief Summary

Physical inactivity is still a major public health problem. Active transportation i.e. walking or cycling for transport can contribute to greater total physical activity. The specific aim of this study is to evaluate if a 12-week mobile phone application can increase time spent in active transportation (cycling or walking) and in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity in Swedish adults aged 20-65 years.

Study Arms (2)

Mobile phone based intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants in the intervention group will receive a 12 week mobile phone based program via a mobile phone application specifically designed for this study. The program will include information, advice and strategies to increase active transportation. Feedback will be provided on personal goals.
