Number of participants that adhere to and complete the intervention

An ActivPAL is a small, previously validated thigh-worn device that continuously measures physical activity, sitting time or movement. An Actigraph is a small wrist worn device that continuously measures physical activity intensity (i.e., exercise intensity), sleep time or movement.

The average of the scores for participants using the GLTEQ is a 3-item measure used to classify participant's activity levels per week. The Weekly leisure activity score = (9 × Strenuous) + (5 × Moderate) + (3 × Light). The Godin scale score = 24 units or more=active, 14-23 units= moderately active, and less than 14 unites = insufficiently active/ sedentary.

Measuring changes in a 6 minute walk distance. The participant has a goal to walk as fast, but safely, as possible without running for a period of 6 minutes.

Short Physical Performance Battery (Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) is a battery of 3 tests (standing balance, gait speed and char stands) that are combined to assess overall physical function. Each test is scored on a scale of 1-4 with 4 being reflective of good function and 0 of poor function. Overall scores of 10 or less are reflective of mobility limitations.

Participants will be first asked to stand from a sitting position without using their arms. If they can perform the task, they will then be asked to stand up and sit down as many times as possible in a 30 second period. The greater the number of chair stands the better the lower body strength.

Grip strength will be assessed using an isometric handgrip dynamometer while the participant is seated with the head facing straight ahead. The elbow should be bent at a 90-degree angle and the wrist should be at the mid-prone position. The participant should exert maximally and quickly (about 1 second) and two trials should be made alternately with each hand, with at least 30 seconds between trials for the same hand (recorded in kilograms).

The Exercise Self-Efficacy Scale assesses an individual's beliefs in their ability to continue exercising on a three time per week basis at moderate intensities for 40+ minutes per session in the future. For each item, participants indicate their confidence to execute the behavior on a 100-point percentage scale comprised of 10-point increments, ranging from 0% (not at all confident) to 100% (highly confident). Total strength for each measure of self-efficacy is then calculated by summing the confidence ratings and dividing by the total number of items in the scale, resulting in a maximum possible efficacy score of 100.

Assessment of the level of support individuals making health-behavior changes (exercise) felt they were receiving from family and friends.

Family Participation: sum items 11 - 16 and 20 - 23 Family Rewards and Punishment (an optional scale): sum items 17 - 19 Friend Participation: sum items 11 - 16 and 20 - 23

Higher scores reflect more support.

Walk Score measures the walkability of any address using a patented system. For each address, Walk Score analyzes hundreds of walking routes to nearby amenities. Points are awarded based on the distance to amenities in each category. Amenities within a 5 minute walk (.25 miles) are given maximum points.

90-100 is a good walk score 70-89 is very walkable 50-69 is somewhat walkable 0-49 is car dependent

The FACIT-fatigue scale is a 13-item scale that has been widely used in many studies to assess cancer related fatigue

Scores range from 0-52 with higher scores indicating better quality of life.

The FACT-P measure is composed of the FACT-General which assesses four primary HRQOL domains: physical well-being , functional well-being, social well-being, and emotional well-being and an additional component for prostate specific concerns.

Scores range from 0-156 with higher scores reflecting better quality of life

The SF-36 is perhaps the most widely used measure of health status and includes domains of vitality and physical function.

The SF-36 has 8 subdomains (physical functioning, role limitations due to physical health, role limitations due to emotional problems, energy/fatigue, emotional well-being, social functioning, pain, general health). Each scale item is scored on a 0 to 100 range so that the lowest and highest possible scores are 0 and 100, respectively with 100 higher quality of life.

PROMIS - Fatigue is a validated self-report measure of fatigue among patients diagnosed with cancer and higher scores indicate a lower level of fatigue. All scores are on a T-score distribution with a mean of 50 and standard deviation of 10.

PROMIS - Physical function is a validated self-report measure of physical function among patients diagnosed with cancer and higher scores indicate better functioning. All scores are on a T-score distribution with a mean of 50 and standard deviation of 10.

PROMIS - Anxiety is a validated self-report measure of physical function among patients diagnosed with cancer and higher scores indicate better functioning. All scores are on a T-score distribution with a mean of 50 and standard deviation of 10.

PROMIS - Depression is a validated self-report measure of physical function among patients diagnosed with cancer and higher scores indicate better functioning. All scores are on a T-score distribution with a mean of 50 and standard deviation of 10.

PROMIS - Sleep disturbance is a validated self-report measure of physical function among patients diagnosed with cancer and higher scores indicate better functioning. All scores are on a T-score distribution with a mean of 50 and standard deviation of 10.

Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) questionnaire is a self-administered questionnaire used to examine education and income variables in relation to cardiovascular risk. The questionnaire is administered at the baseline visit. We will also ask about difficult paying for basics and experience of racial discrimination at 3- and 6-month follow up visits.
