Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if newly developed intervention package works to improve physical activity level among patients with intermediate cardiovascular risk factors. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the INSPIRE-PA intervention increase the level of physical activity among participants with intermediate cardiovascular risk factors? * What changes occur in physical activity level, BMI and blood pressure following participation in the intervention? * Are there any challenges, barriers, or unintended effects experienced by participants during the intervention period? * Researchers will compare the INSPIRE-PA intervention to usual care to determine whether the empowerment-based strategy is effective in improving physical activity levels and reducing cardiovascular risk among patients attending government primary medical care Iinstitutions. Participants will: * Participate in the INSPIRE-PA program for 6 months * Attend scheduled follow-up visits at the primary medical care institution (e.g., every 2-4 weeks)for counselling, evaluation of physical activity level, and assessment of cardiovascular risk indicators * Engage in structured physical activity as recommended in the intervention package * Record their daily physical activity and any challenges or barriers in a physical activity logbook or diary * Undergo periodic measurements such as blood pressure, weight, waist circumference, and other relevant clinical assessments
