Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Truckers face many unique challenges in their work that may adversely impact their health, including time constraints, sedentary job tasks, and a 'moving-workplace' environment with associated limitations to access healthy food and safe places to be physically active. These issues make it difficult to form and maintain healthy lifestyle habits and contribute to the high prevalence of injuries from both crashes and falls among truckers is supported by an increase in obesity among truckers with longer durations of employment. The investigators propose to develop and pilot test the Exercise Intervention of the Worksite Health, Eating and Exercising for the Long-haul (WHEEL)'s weight loss intervention. This pilot exercise intervention is aimed at achieving meaningful improvement in grip strength, balance, and gait over 6 weeks. The investigators will use pilot sample of 15 obese (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2) truckers, documenting changes in these measures. Individualized assessments will be utilized. The investigators will aim to complete the following: 1. Evaluate the feasibility of the PIE WHEEL intervention for CMV drivers will result in greater strength comparing baseline with 6 week outcomes. 1. Determine the extent to which drivers will participate in PIE WHEEL 2. Determine the extent of change in strength, balance and gait realized by PIE WHEEL participation 2. Evaluate safety events (crashes, near misses, falls) in the week prior to PIE WHEEL and the final week of PIE WHEEL a. Solicit driver perceptions of their own safety of ingress and egress related to PIE WHEEL participation
