Purpose: This study is designed as a non-equivalent, control group pre/post-test for identifying effectiveness of a workplace walking program using a fitness tracker including individual counseling and tailored text messaging.
Methods: Seventy-nine employees from two large companies were allocated into an intervention group(n=39) and a control group(n=40). Participants were asked to wear a fitness tracker(Fitbit Charger HR) during 24-hour, 5-days per week, for 10 weeks. The intervention group was provided with daily walking steps measured by Fitbit, weekly counseling with a specifically designed workbook, and seven weekly text messaging, and the control group with the fitness tracker only.
Results: At the week 10 measurement, there were significant differences between the intervention and control groups in physical activity self-efficacy(p<.001), physical activity behavior(p<.001), daily walking steps(p<.001), systolic blood pressure(p=.033), and wellness(p<.001).
Conclusion: These results suggest that the workplace walking program using a fitness tracker including individual counseling and tailored text messaging is more effective for persons with 10,000 steps/day. Therefore, it is recommended to actively apply this workplace walking program to inactive employees for encouraging regular physical activities and improving their wellness.
