Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Mindfulness
Participants will use the strategy of mindfulness, i.e., present moment awareness with nonjudgment and acceptance, while exercising.
Mindfulness
Participants will use mindfulness techniques while exercising
Distraction
Participants will use the strategy of distraction, i.e., directing their attention to something other than exercise (specifically a podcast) while exercising.
Distraction
Participants will distract themselves while exercising
Self-Monitoring
Participants will monitor their internal experience while exercising, without distraction and without being taught mindfulness skills of nonjudgment and acceptance.
Self-monitoring
Participants will use associative attentional focus while exercising

Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
2. Insufficiently physically active for the past 6-months (i.e., does not meet American College of Sports Medicine \[ACSM\] guideline for cardiorespiratory exercise). The ACSM guidelines state that all healthy adults should engage in a minimum of 150 minutes per week of moderate intensity cardiorespiratory exercise, or 75 minutes per week of vigorous intensity exercise, or an equivalent combination of the two). On the eligibility screen assessment, we will define moderate and vigorous intensity exercise. Then we will ask individuals to report how many minutes of moderate and vigorous intensity exercise they engage in per week. We will use the ACSM's rule of thumb that 1 minute of moderate intensity exercise is equivalent to 2 minutes of vigorous intensity exercise. This will help to ensure that prospective participants who exercise for less than 150 minutes per week are not actually meeting the ACSM guidelines for cardiorespiratory fitness by engaging in vigorous intensity exercise. Thus, if total minutes of moderate intensity exercise and total minutes of vigorous intensity exercise (multiplied by 2) per week is equal to or greater than 150, callers will not be eligible for study inclusion.
3. Physically capable of safely engaging in moderate-intensity physical activity (PA)
4. Able and willing to access the Internet daily for two weeks
5. Willing to accept random assignment.
6. Have a smartphone or other mobile device (e.g., iPod Touch) that can play media (important if participants are assigned to the distraction condition)
7. Willing to engage in an exercise intervention specifically involving walking, jogging, running, or hiking (not other types of exercise)
Exclusion Criteria
2. Are currently pregnant
3. Are currently on antipsychotic medications
4. Have a history of cardiac or respiratory disease
5. Are receiving treatment for a heart condition or high blood pressure
6. Experience chest pains during and/or not during physical activity
7. Have a muscle, bone, or joint problem or injury that limit movement, make exercise painful, or could be made worse by exercising
8. Have a close family history of an adverse cardiac event before the age of 50.
