Background
The benefits of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) for breast cancer survivors are well established. However, most are insufficiently active. Fit2Thrive used the Multiphase Optimization Strategy methodology to determine the effect of 5 intervention components on MVPA in this population.
Methods
Two hundred sixty‐nine participants (mean age, 52.5 years; SD, 9.9 years) received...

Further, there is limited research that has simultaneously tested social‐cognitive models with self‐report and objective PA measures. The primary aim of this...
