- Allocation: RandomizedIntervention Model: Parallel AssignmentIntervention Model Description: This is a pilot randomized, controlled trial of a 6-week intervention for feasibility. Outcome measures will be obtained at baseline and at 6-weeks. Behavior choices and preference data will be continuously captured during the intervention. We will randomize 80 older Latinos from the Chicago Latino community to either an ecological momentary intervention using fitbits (n=40) or to physical activity guidelines (n=40).Masking: None (Open Label)Primary Purpose: Treatment

After being informed of the study and potential risks, all patients giving informed consent will undergo a focused phone interviews, followed by screening to determine eligibility. Participants that meet inclusion criteria will undergo baseline cognitive function testing via video (following NIH toolbox guidelines for remote cognitive function assessment), followed by a one week measurement of sedentary time using a physical activity monitor (actigraphy). At week 0, participants will be randomized into either a physical activity group to break up sedentary time or activity guidelines only in a 1:1 ratio. Follow up occurs at 6 weeks using the same measures as baseline.
