Average number of daily steps taken at baseline, week 6 and week 12 by the 30 minute group and the 10,000 steps group. The average steps/day were measured at baseline, week 6 and week 12 in both groups. Data are expressed as means ± SEM. Different letters above bar graphs indicate significance between groups at p < 0.05. * Significant difference (P < 0.05) within group (baseline versus 6 weeks and baseline versus 12 weeks).
