Abstract

Obesity is a costly, rapidly growing, and largely preventable disease linked with increased risk of noncommunicable disease and all-cause mortality.1,2 Whereas encouraging physical activity for overweight and obese women could potentially improve health and reduce health expenditure, around one-third of the world's population continues to be inactive.3 Moreover, in some groups, significant barriers can impede capacity for positive behavior change.
