Description

Our main objective is to evaluate the intervention that best enables women's adherence to physical activity (PA). Our hypothesis is that identifying types of interventions suitable for pregnant women (in-person PA sessions, videoconferences or mixed format) could help improve their PA level and simultaneously reduce their sedentary behavior (SB).

Interventions

In person PA sessions (Behavioral)
Group B women will have access to a weekly program of 3 face-to-face PA sessions. The face-to-face sessions will be offered at one or more locations in the Clermont-Ferrand area, depending on the number of groups taking part. They will also be offered at one or more times depending on the number of groups. Locations and times will be specified on the online booking software. Women can only register for 3 sessions per week.
Interactive videoconference PA sessions (Behavioral)
Women in Group C will have access to a weekly program of 3 PA sessions via interactive videoconferencing. These sessions will have the same format as the face-to-face sessions with visualization of the APA professional, visualization of the participants (who can also choose to be masked). The PA professional will also see the participants, so he or she can correct positions and give individualized advice at any time. Schedules will be specified on the online booking software with the videoconference link. Women can only register for 3 sessions per week.
In person and by videoconference (mixed format) PA sessions. (Behavioral)
Women in Group D will have access to a weekly program of 3 mixed-format PA sessions, with 2 interactive distance learning sessions and 1 in-person session. The in-person sessions will be offered at one or more locations in the Clermont-Ferrand area, depending on the number of groups taking part. Locations and times will be specified on the online booking software. Women can only register for 1 face-to-face session per week. The other 2 sessions will be offered via interactive videoconferencing. These sessions will have the same format as the in-person sessions, with visualization of the APA professional, visualization of the participants. The APA professional will also see the participants, so he or she can correct positions and give individualized advice at any time. Schedules will be specified on the online booking software with the videoconference link. Women can only register for 2 videoconference's sessions per week.
