Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Following admission into the study, participants will be visited once a week for four weeks at home by a physical therapist. The participants in consultation with the physical therapist will set daily physical activity goals for the following week and the participants will be taught how to monitor their daily activity using a Fitbit physical activity wristband.
The goals of this study are to determine whether this intervention is effective in helping participants increase their levels of daily physical activity and their confidence that they can successfully engage in daily physical activity. In addition, there will be an evaluation of changes from pre-intervention to post-intervention in quality of life measures.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Single Arm
All five participants in the study will receive this intervention. The participants will be visited in their homes by a physical therapist once a week. The physical therapist will use a coaching technique called motivational interviewing to help the participant develop personal physical activity goals. The participant will discuss their physical activity challenges, and with the help of the physical therapist the participant will set up personal physical activity goals for the following week. The participant will be given a wristband physical activity monitor to wear during the day for four weeks to track their progress in meeting their activity goals.
Motivational Interviewing
The participant will describe their unique physical activity challenges and their physical activity goals with the physical therapist. Using the technique of motivational interviewing, the physical therapist will work with the participant to help identify potential solutions to challenges and set realistic activity goals for the next week. Each week, the participant and the physical therapist will review the previous week's activity data, and the participant's reports of any challenges or problems they encountered in meeting their physical activity goals the previous week. The participant will identify new activity goals for the next week.
Wristband physical activity monitor
The participant will wear a Fitbit wristband which will track the participant's daily steps and minutes of physical activity.
