Participants were recruited in May 2018, and the intervention took place between June and December 2018. The intervention involved 12 weekly 90-min face-to-face sessions, incorporating physical activity, nutrition, and behaviour change information and practical activities delivered by coaches at 2 clubs. Data were collected at baseline and immediately postintervention. For trial feasibility purposes, 6-month follow-ups were completed. Outcomes were differences in weight loss (primary outcome) and recruitment and retention rates, self-reported measures (for example, psychological well-being), device-measured physical activity, waist size, and blood pressure at 3 months. Within 3 days of advertising at each club, 426 men registered interest; 306 (72%) were eligible. Men were selected on a first-come first-served basis (n = 130; M age = 45.8, SD = 8; M BMI = 34.48 kg/m² SD = 4.87) and randomised by a blinded researcher. Trial retention was 86% and 63% at 3- and 6-month follow-ups (respectively). No adverse events were reported. At 3 months, mean difference in weight between groups, adjusted for baseline weight and group, was 3.3 kg (95% CI 1.9, 4.8) in favour of the intervention group (p < 0.001). The intervention group's moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) was higher than the control group by 8.54 min/day (95% CI 1.37, 15.71, p = 0.02). MVPA among men attracted to Aussie-FIT was high at baseline (intervention arm 35.61 min/day, control arm 38.38 min/day), which may have limited the scope for improvement. Conclusion: Aussie-FIT was feasible to deliver; participants increased physical activity, decreased weight, and reported improvements in other outcomes. Issues with retention were a limitation of this trial. In a future, fully powered randomised controlled trial (RCT), retention could be improved by conducting assessments outside of holiday seasons.]]> Wed 07 Apr 2021 20:21:06 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:43994 Wed 05 Oct 2022 14:43:36 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:36425 Thu 30 Apr 2020 13:32:09 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:412 = 6.6 v <= 5.0 mmol/L 1.27 (1.06-1.53); and not ever having had a raised cholesterol 1.20 (1.04-1.40). There was no difference in cardiovascular disease end points and death in those who were and were not initiated on drug therapy at randomization. Conclusions: Failure to initiate antihypertensive therapy for patients at the randomization visit was associated with lower BP measurements, previous drug therapy, younger age, and a historic or current raised cholesterol, but not with overt cardiovascular disease or other risk factors. There was no difference in cardiovascular disease end points and death in those who were and were not initiated on drug therapy at randomization.]]> Thu 25 Jul 2013 09:09:51 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:30664 Thu 02 May 2019 11:11:55 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:9595 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:39:36 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:9689 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:39:14 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8164 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:36:04 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:1412 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:28:15 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:11389 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:10:00 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:17744 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:57:20 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:19852 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:57:05 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:359 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:42:36 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38955 Mon 29 Jan 2024 17:47:53 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:36427 Fri 28 May 2021 12:24:03 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:14091 Fri 10 Mar 2023 19:12:48 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:49106 Fri 05 May 2023 11:32:17 AEST ]]>
