Experimental: Fast walking
Participants assigned to this group met with two group leaders three times per week in the morning in Jing An Park and were encouraged to walk quickly around a 400 meter circular route.
Each session consisted of 10 minutes of warm-up stretching, 30 minutes of brisk walking, and 10 minutes of cool-down exercises.
Prior to the first session, each participant was given a pedometer with their name on it.
They were asked to take 100 steps and the sensitivity and positioning of the pedometer was adjusted to assure accurate measurement.
At the termination of each session, the pedometers were collected and the number of steps taken by each participant at that session recorded.
A record of the number of steps taken for every participant at each session over the 40 week period was maintained.
