Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Physical Activity
Change in trend (slope) in self-reported physical activity during the intervention phase (6 months) and the follow-up phase (6 months) as measured by i) whether they achieved the weekly recommended Canadian Physical Activity Guidelines, and ii) the number of days in the past week engaged in ≥30 min of moderate to vigorous physical activity (single item physical activity questionnaire).
Weekly outcome assessment throughout the intervention phase (6 months) and follow-up monitoring phase (6 months) for a total of 12 months (48 weeks).
Secondary Outcomes (4)
Disability
Bimonthly outcome assessment throughout the intervention phase (6 months) and follow-up monitoring phase (6 months) for a total of 13 time points.
Health
Bimonthly outcome assessment throughout the intervention phase (6 months) and follow-up monitoring phase (6 months) for a total of 13 time points.
Mental Health
Bimonthly outcome assessment throughout the intervention phase (6 months) and follow-up monitoring phase (6 months) for a total of 13 time points.
Engagement in Care
Bimonthly outcome assessment throughout the intervention phase (6 months) and follow-up monitoring phase (6 months) for a total of 13 time points.
Other Outcomes (2)
Extrinsic Contextual Factor - HIV Stigma
Bimonthly outcome assessment throughout the intervention phase (6 months) and follow-up monitoring phase (6 months) for a total of 13 time points.
Intrinsic Contextual Factor - Mastery
Bimonthly outcome assessment throughout the intervention phase (6 months) and follow-up monitoring phase (6 months) for a total of 13 time points.
Study Arms (1)
Tele-Coaching (Online) Community-Based Exercise
EXPERIMENTALThis study involves two phases: a six month online Community-Based Exercise Intervention (Phase 1), followed by a six month Follow-Up Monitoring Phase (Phase 2).
Interventions
PHASE 1-Intervention Phase (6 months): Participants will engage in an individual tailored home-based exercise program involving aerobic, resistance, balance and flexibility training \~60min, 3 times per week for 24 weeks. Intervention will include: Component 1) biweekly 60 min personal online coaching with a certified trainer from the YMCA (13 sessions) who will monitor and progress exercise intensity; Component 2) weekly online group-based exercise classes \~60 min each led by a trainer at YMCA; Component 3) monthly online evidence-based self-management education sessions focused on topics related to self-management and health, and physical activity living with HIV; and Component 4) a wireless physical activity monitor (WPAM) to self-monitor steps, distance, calories burned, and active minutes. PHASE 2: Post-Intervention (6 months): Participants will be encouraged to continue with unsupervised home / outdoor-based exercise 3 times per week and to continue using their WPAM throughout.
