Physical activity interventions targeting African American women have shown promise in increasing exercise levels, particularly through strategies like walking, social support, and healthy diet incorporation. Addressing barriers such as neighborhood safety and sustaining motivation over time is crucial for long-term adherence. These interventions not only improve physical health but may also enhance behavioral health and wellness factors like sleep and breathing, highlighting the importance of culturally tailored, supportive programs for this population’s overall well-being.
