Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The intervention arm consists of two main parts: home based video conferencing virtual exercise sessions and mobile exercise apps, which women use to tailor exercise routines to their own skill level and preferences. Both arms will receive an activity monitor that they collect continuous activity data throughout the study.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Virtual exercise and mobile apps
Participants randomized to the intervention arm will join a virtual group convenient for them. They will plan and participate in 8 weeks (every week day) of virtual exercise sessions. Sessions will all be under 30 minutes and include a brief check in amongst participants. The investigators will provide links to information on physical activity and links to online resources for being active.
Virtual exercise
Using videoconferencing, mothers assigned to intervention arm will participate in daily (weekdays) virtual exercise sessions for 6 weeks with other mothers.
Mobile apps
During virtual exercise sessions, mothers assigned to intervention arm will follow exercise routines using mobile exercise apps that are recommended by study staff.
Exercise resources and information
For all mothers, the investigators will provide standard information on the benefits of exercise and link to existing public health resources on how to start and stay active.
Exercise resources and information
The investigators will provide links to information on physical activity and links to online resources for being active. Women will be invited to join the exercise groups at the end of the 8 weeks.
