Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

The Sit Less, Interact, Move More (SLIMM) intervention effectively increased daily steps and stepping duration in older adults with obesity. This suggests behavioral interventions promoting low-intensity physical activity are feasible for this demographic.

Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Behavioral Science
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Sedentary behaviors are linked to negative health outcomes in older adults.
  • The feasibility of interventions to reduce sedentary time in this population remains unclear.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the effectiveness of the Sit Less, Interact, Move More (SLIMM) intervention on sedentary behavior and physical activity in older adults with obesity.
  • To examine intervention effects stratified by age (<70 and ≥70 years).

Main Methods:

  • A secondary analysis of the SLIMM trial involving 106 participants with obesity.
  • Participants were randomized to either the SLIMM intervention or standard care.
  • Mixed-effects models analyzed accelerometer-measured sedentary and stepping durations, and steps per day.

Main Results:

  • In adults aged ≥70 years, the SLIMM intervention significantly increased stepping duration (13 min/d) and steps per day (1330 steps/d) compared to standard care.
  • The intervention also non-significantly reduced sedentary duration in this older subgroup.
  • No significant differences in outcomes were observed between intervention and control groups for adults younger than 70 years.

Conclusions:

  • The SLIMM intervention is effective in increasing stepping duration and daily steps among older adults with obesity.
  • Behavioral interventions promoting low-intensity physical activity are feasible and beneficial for reducing sedentary behaviors in older adults.
