论文摘要：Background: Wearable activity trackers are commonly used in mHealth weight loss interventions, but evidence linking adherence to moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) goals with changes in body composition is limited. We examined associations between adherence to study-prescribed MVPA goals and changes in percent body fat and sex-specific waist circumference (WC) over 12 months in the SMARTER trial. Methods: Participants (N = 502, 79.5% female; mean age 45 years; mean BMI 33.7 kg/m2) were randomized to self-monitoring of diet, PA, and weight (SM) or SM plus daily tailored feedback messages (SM + FB). Weekly adherence to ≥300 min/week of MVPA was quantified using Fitbit-derived equivalents. Associations between MVPA adherence and changes in percent body fat and sex-specific WC over 12 months were examined using linear mixed models. Results: Among the full sample, greater MVPA adherence was associated with reductions in body fat (b = −0.01; 95% CI: −0.02, −0.005), but not in WC (women: b = −0.01; −0.03, 0.01; men: b = −0.03; −0.05, 0.0002). Among the completers, higher adherence was associated with decreases in body fat (b = −0.01; −0.02, −0.004) and WC (women: b = −0.02; −0.04, −0.004; men: b = −0.04; −0.08, −0.003). Conclusions: Higher MVPA adherence was associated with favorable changes in adiposity over 12 months, supporting the use of wearable-derived PA measures in long-term mHealth behavioral interventions.
