High levels of physical activity have been related to better prognosis in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, so far no interventions have proven effective to modify physical activity in COPD. The aims of this thesis are to design, validate and test the Urban Training intervention to modify physical activity behavior at the long term, and to assess the relationship of novel determinants with the physical activity in COPD patients. We designed walking trails of different intensities in public spaces, the Urban Training intervention was implemented and evaluated after a follow-up of 12 months, and socio-environmental determinants were studied. At the end of this thesis, walking trails were validated showing th...
