A 4-week lifestyle program called Women's Active Living for Koreans (WALK) was designed for Korean American women to promote physical activity (PA). In a pilot-controlled trial, 40 women were randomized to WALK-regular or WALK-plus. WALK-plus involved joining an online community via a social media app. WALK-plus performed significantly higher numbers of days of muscle-strengthening activities than WALK-regular at the post-intervention visit. Both groups increased vigorous activities and walking and decreased sedentary behaviors on weekdays. WALK program showed great potential in improving PA and decreasing sedentary behaviors. Online social networking may have an additional effect on PA among this population.
一项名为“韩国女性积极生活方式”（WALK）的四周生活方式计划专为美籍韩裔女性设计，旨在促进身体活动（PA）。在一项试点对照试验中，将 40 名女性随机分为 WALK-regular 组和 WALK-plus 组。WALK-plus 组通过社交媒体应用程序加入在线社区。WALK-plus 组在干预后访视时进行肌肉强化活动的天数明显高于 WALK-regular 组。两组均增加了剧烈活动和步行，减少了工作日的久坐行为。WALK 计划在提高 PA 和减少久坐行为方面显示出巨大潜力。在线社交网络可能对该人群的 PA 有额外影响。
