The PACE-UP Next Steps application is designed to support participants in the PACE-UP walking programme. It provides a 12-week step-count diary and a walking programme for participants recruited to the PACE-UP next steps research project
PACE-UP was a randomised controlled trial of a pedometer intervention to increase walking in adults which ran from 2012-2016, and demonstrated that 45-75 year olds became more active when they were given a pedometer (to count their steps) with a physical activity diary and guidance on a 12-week walking programme. The increase in physical activity was still present after 3 years. For further information about the PACE-UP trial please visit www.paceup.sgul.ac.uk.
PACE-UP Next Steps is supported by the NIHR Collaboration for Leadership in Applied Health Research and Care (CLAHRC) South London and by St Georges, University of London Strategic Investment Fund.
