Mrs. Sanchez is married with 3 young children and has a busy work schedule at a law firm. She was recently evaluated by her physician and referred to you for an exercise program to address cardiovascular risk factors. She is asymptomatic. When you discussed the ACSM recommendations for aerobic training at a moderate intensity, Mrs. Sanchez replies that she has limited time and doesn’t feel she can devote 150 minutes per week to work out. What would be the most appropriate exercise prescription strategy for this patient?

Refer to the abstract below from Groves and Allen (2024) “The Buddy System: African American Women with Self-Reported Hypertension and Their Experiences in a Peer (Dyadic) Support Intervention” Global Journal of Health Science, 16(8), 70-8. Introduction: Hypertension is the leading modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease, and it disproportionately affects African American women, who face increased risks of heart disease, kidney disease, and stroke. The Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet effectively reduces blood pressure, but African American women often face challenges with adhering to it. Peer support, a proven mechanism for improving health behaviors through social connections and community resources, may help these women better manage their diet and hypertension. This qualitative study explored the experiences of African American women participating in an eight-week peer (dyadic) support intervention to improve DASH diet adherence and lowering systolic blood pressure, with an emphasis on understanding the dyadic relationship. Methods: A purposive sample of 40 African American women (20 dyads) was recruited for five focus groups that were conducted both online and in person. Content analysis was used to identify themes related to the nature and quality of peer interactions and relationships from the perspectives of the 34 women who completed the intervention (Mean age = 71.38 years; SD = 8.38). Results: Four subthemes related to social support emerged: emotional support, shared experiences, informational/inspirational support, and accountability. The participants reported forming strong, supportive relationships that were crucial in improving diet and blood pressure management. Conclusion: This study underscores the benefits of peer support in managing hypertension among older African American women, suggesting the need for future randomized controlled trials to examine the effectiveness of the DASH diet with and without peer support.   Describe the mediational model of The Buddy System intervention. Specifically, what is the logic of how the intervention will change modifiable factors, which in turn will change intermediate behavioral and long-term health outcomes? Entire response should be 1-3 complete sentences.
