Abstract

In brief Promoting physical activity among patients is an essential role for physicians. Project PACE (Physician-based Assessment and Counseling for Exercise) is a practical system of matching physician counseling with patient readiness for physical activity. The PACE counseling approach will help physicians attain national goals for health promotion for the year 2000.
