Although the benefits of physical activity are well-known, African American participation is disproportionately low in conjunction with higher rates of obesity and several cardiovascular disease risk factors compared to their non-Hispanic White counterparts. This review was conducted to explore evidence and gaps for the impact of motivational interviewing on physical activity outcomes in African Americans. A modified Cochrane method of systematic reviews was used to search relevant research databases (PsycINFO, PubMed/MEDLINE, and SPORTDiscus, Science Citation Index Expanded Social Sciences Citation Index). Relevant articles were reviewed and eliminated in title/abstract and full-text tiers based upon inclusion/exclusion criteria. Of 182 articles, seven randomized controlled trials met the inclusion criteria and were retained for this review. Only one study showed motivational interviewing to have a significant impact on physical activity outcomes, and several studies showed significant impact on other secondary health-related outcomes (nutrition/dietary intake, body weight/body mass index, cardiovascular/aerobic fitness, motivation, glucose/HBA1C levels, medication adherence, smoking cessation, and improvement in quality of life). This review does not support the use of motivational interviewing to significantly improve physical activity outcomes in African Americans and future studies should conduct more motivational interviewing training and fidelity tests to ensure motivational interviewing-consistent skills as well as conduct more sessions in-person.
虽然体育锻炼的好处是众所周知的，但与非西班牙裔白人相比，非裔美国人的参与率低得不成比例，而且肥胖率和一些心血管疾病风险因素也较高。本综述旨在探讨动机性访谈对非裔美国人体育活动结果影响的证据和差距。采用改进的Cochrane系统评价方法检索相关研究数据库(PsycINFO、PubMed/MEDLINE和SPORTDiscus, Science Citation Index Expanded Social Sciences Citation Index)。根据纳入/排除标准对相关文章进行审查，并在标题/摘要和全文层中删除。182篇文章中，有7篇随机对照试验符合纳入标准，被纳入本综述。只有一项研究表明动机性访谈对身体活动结果有显著影响，还有几项研究表明对其他次要健康相关结果(营养/饮食摄入、体重/体重指数、心血管/有氧适能、动机、葡萄糖/糖化血红蛋白水平、药物依从性、戒烟和生活质量改善)有显著影响。本综述不支持使用动机性访谈显著改善非裔美国人的体育活动结果，未来的研究应进行更多的动机性访谈训练和保真度测试，以确保动机性访谈的一致技能，并进行更多的面对面访谈。

This pilot study used a mixed methods approach to determine outcomes of a group tele-exercise program to promote physical and psychosocial well-being (mood), quality of life (QOL) and enhanced physical activity for individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). Eleven volunteers with SCI participated in virtual group exercise consisting of mind-body movement practice to build strength, fitness, confidence, and QOL. An experienced community exercise instructor and a trained co-leader with lived experience of SCI co-taught each session. Qualitative group interviews and quantitative measures of QOL, mood, pain interference and leisure time physical activity (LTPA) were obtained at baseline and 8-weeks. Increased QOL and reduced pain interference were found following the program, with moderate-to-large effect sizes for increased LTPA. Strong associations among pain interference, mood, QOL and LTPA change were identified. Our novel tele-exercise program demonstrated promise for utility to increase LTPA engagement while enhancing QOL and well-being in individuals with SCI.

The purpose of this paper is to stimulate debate and raise awareness of the increased physical inactivity problems during and post the COVID-19 pandemic. The paper initially outlines the detrimental effects of inadequate physical activity and suggests reasons for the decreases observed during the pandemic. Further to this, the paper then examines the potential benefits of dance as an alternative/addition to participation in physical activity. Also, the paper discusses the beneficial effects of dance on physiological and psychological parameters and implications for health benefits and social engagement. We hope that the contents of this paper will invigorate individuals and physical activity providers, to consider dance as a viable alternative/addition to traditional physical activity.

Background : Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the number 1 cause of death in United States (U.S.) with stroke also a leading killer at number 5. Aside from decreased quality of life and increased years of potential life lost (YPLL), cardiovascular disease (CVD) has a major impact on health care costs. While many CVD events can be prevented by adopting a healthy lifestyle, data quantifying this are sparse. The aim of this study was to assess the proportion of CVD cases that can be attributed to not meeting physical activity (PA) guidelines in a specific adult population. Methods : The Montana Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS, 2019) was used for this study. A dichotomous PA variable was created indicating whether or not a participant met current PA guidelines. Seven other healthy lifestyle variables were created and included smoking, alcohol consumption, overweight status, vegetable consumption, fruit consumption, and, health coverage. Three different outcome variables were used and included CHD, stroke, and CVD (CHD or stroke). Logistic regression was used to examine the relationship between PA and each CVD outcome while controlling for healthy lifestyle factors and sociodemographic variables. Population attributable risk (PAR) percentages were computed substituting PA odds ratio (OR) values into Levin's formula. Results : Prevalence of reported CHD, stroke, and CVD were 6.7%, 3.1%, and 8.7%, respectively. Additionally, prevalence of each CVD outcome was significantly ( p s < .05) higher in adult groups not meeting PA guidelines, as compared to their more active counterparts. PA was significantly related to CHD (OR = 1.36, 95% CI: 1.04 – 1.79) and CVD (OR = 1.32, 95% CI: 1.02 – 1.71) in fully adjusted models and suggestively related to stroke (OR = 1.24, 95% CI: 0.81 – 1.91). PAR analyses indicated that approximately 12.1%, 8.4%, and 10.8% of CHD, stroke, and CVD cases (respectively) could be prevented in Montana with PA intervention. Conclusion : This study found that after controlling for several healthy lifestyle factors, not meeting PA guidelines independently contributes to a sizable number of CVD cases in Montana. Health promotion programming leaders should use such PAR statistics to drive the needs assessment process and plan for PA interventions.
