Abstract
CASTRO, C.M., and A.C. KING. Telephone-assisted counseling for physical activity. Exerc. Sport Sci. Rev., Vol. 30, No. 2, pp. 64–68, 2002. Different methods of intervention have been tested to promote physical activity at the individual level. The telephone is an excellent form of media for delivering exercise counseling and advice. This review highlights important clinical trials that have documented the success of telephone-assisted exercise counseling for promoting physical activity in a variety of populations.Keywords
