Developing a Lifestyle Intervention to Reduce Body Weight for Obese African American Men Living in the Rural South
The primary objective of this study is to test the feasibility and acceptability of a 12-week behavioral weight management intervention adapted for Black men living in the rural South. The intervention is guided by Self-Determination Theory of Motivation, Social Cognitive Theory, and Ecological Systems Theory. Key aspects of the intervention include a football-themed curriculum, facilitator and peer concordance to the extent possible (ie., similarly aged Black men), an emphasis on male-specific health concerns, group-based competition at multiple levels of the intervention (e.g., during in-person physical activity sessions and for achieving behavioral goals), a limited educational component, and physical activity being a substantial component of meeting sessions.
