Description

The purpose of the study is to compare two different physical activity interventions (BREAK or ONE) to learn about their effects on blood sugar and metabolism. Participants will be randomized to one of two interventions: ONE (45-minutes of brisk walking at least 5 days per week) and BREAK (5-minute bouts of walking 9 times a day on at least 5 days per week). Participants will be male and female adult volunteers with prediabetes. Eligibility: -Male and female - BMI: 18.5-40 kg/m2 and weight stable over the previous 6 months. - Age: 18-64 years old. - Fasting glucose of 100-125 mg/dL or fasting HbA1c of 5.7-6.4%, or 2h OGTT blood glucose of 140-199mg/dL based on the American Diabetes Association criteria for pre-diabetes. (These will be tested during study screening visits.) -Less than 150 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) per week and more than 6 hours of sitting time per day.
