abstract = {The development and implementation of effective physical activity (PA) intervention programs is
challenging, particularly in older adults. After the first year of the intervention program used in the ongoing
PREvención con DIeta MEDiterránea (PREDIMED)-Plus trial, we assessed the initial effectiveness of the PA component. After 12 months, average daily MVPA increased by 27.2 (95%CI 5.7;48.7) METs-min/day and 123.1 (95%CI 109.
7–136.6) METs-min/day in the control and intervention groups, respectively. Total-PA, light-PA, and MVPA increased
significantly (p < 0.01) in both groups. A significant (p < 0.001) time*intervention group interaction was found for
Total-PA and MVPA, meaning the PA trajectory over time differed between the intervention and control groups. Age,
sex, education level, and BMI did not moderate the effectiveness of the PA intervention. BMI and WC decreased
significantly with increasing MVPA, compared with participants who reported no changes in MVPA. After one year of follow-up, the PREDIMED-Plus PA intervention has been effective in increasing daily PA
in older adults.},
