The Fit&Fab Study uses a novel approach to increasing exercise participation in this population by focusing on exercise enjoyment, and increasing appreciation of the the proximal benefits of exercise rather than focusing on weight.  We also focus on the social environement and group support.  addressing changes to the exercise environment that make it conducive to this population.  By delivering our intervention in partnership with the YMCA we not only have the ability to make changes to a typical exercise context, but we also ensure that our findings can be used to help exercise-focused community organizations implement a scalable, research-tested program.
