What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This study is a randomized controlled trial. The objective of this study is to investigate: 1. the effects of 1-year evidence-based interventions incorporating wearable device functions alone on device-measured movement behaviours and cardiometabolic risk factors among adults with central obesity; and 2. the effects of 1-year evidence-based interventions incorporating wearable device functions combined with health coaching on device-measured movement behaviours and cardiometabolic risk factors among adults with central obesity. We hypothesise that the use of wearable device functions in combination with health coaching will lead to significantly greater improvements in device-measured movement behaviours and cardiometabolic risk factors compared with no intervention and wearable device functions alone, both after the 12-month intervention and at the 6-month follow-up. This study will
