MyEveryCise: A method for everyday exercise using ‘an activity of daily living’ as a cue
Regular engagement in physical activity is recognized as an effective prevention strategy for both cognitive and physical decline. We developed MyEveryCise, an exercise program that uses an activity of daily living as a cue to encourage regular physical exercise. This exploratory study assessed the effectiveness of MyEveryCise in increasing the persistence in light exercise in twenty persons with low physical activity in a one-month intervention. Using the physical activity questionnaire, we observed a significant increase in the frequency and duration of light physical exercise after the intervention, suggesting that MyEveryCise is a useful method to maintain a daily exercise routine.
