Measure
Control Group
* Usual Working Condition Group (UWC) * The no-intervention control condition will be asked to maintain their usual work and lifestyle throughout the study. Participants may be contacted by Pennington Biomedical staff during the intervention.
Intervention Group
* Combined Intervention (Walk More and Pedal Desk; WMPD) * Participants in the WMPD condition will engage in both step-counting (Walk More, WM) and pedal desk (PD) intervention components. Intervention Group: The content of both intervention components will be covered during a weekly scheduled group meeting (or face-to-face meetings, as needed). The step-counting component of the WMPD intervention will be modeled off the success of The First Step Program (FSP).
