Physical activity (PA) is known to promote a healthy lifestyle among individuals with chronic diseases with various benefits including health, fitness, and function. Often individuals who experience fatigue symptoms have difficulty balancing their daily activities, which could result in a less physically active lifestyle. Tailored activity pacing is a self-management strategy that can help with regulating physical activity levels and self-regulation is the ability to manage emotions. They are two mechanisms involved in exercise engagement and PA, particularly relevant to persons living with fatigue symptoms. Moreover, exploring activity pacing and self-regulation will help us understand how individuals with fatigue plan their days and identify whether they achieve their goals. Activity pacing will be explored as a possible successful approach to improve the way this population manage their activities and deal with fatigue symptoms. Evidence on activity pacing and self-regulation is expected to be a critical feature in PA promotion aimed at introducing tailored advice to better manage PA and fatigue symptoms in people with different activity pacing behaviours. Positive effects have been found in Multiple Sclerosis populations; however, studies on this approach are currently scarce.The main purpose of this PhD research is to develop an intervention to promote PA in individuals with fatigue symptoms by providing advice and guidance on activity pacing and self-regulation and by helping them manage fatigue symptoms. The findings of this project will also be disseminated to health professionals (CRESTA Clinic) and academic audience. Best-practice of co-production in research (UBC Canada) will be mastered internationally.

众所周知，体育锻炼（PA）可以促进具有各种益处在内的慢性疾病患者的健康生活方式，包括健康，健身和功能。经常经历疲劳症状的人通常难以平衡自己的日常活动，这可能会导致身体活跃的生活方式。量身定制的活动起搏是一种自我管理策略，可以帮助调节体育活动水平和自我调节是管理情绪的能力。它们是涉及运动参与和PA的两种机制，尤其与患有疲劳症状的人有关。此外，探索活动起搏和自我调节将有助于我们了解患有疲劳的人如何计划自己的日子并确定他们是否实现目标。活动起搏将被探讨为一种成功的方法，以改善该人群管理活动并应对疲劳症状的方式。预计活动起搏和自我调节的证据预计将是PA促进的关键特征，旨在引入量身定制的建议，以更好地管理活动起搏行为不同的人的PA和疲劳症状。在多发性硬化症种群中发现了积极影响。但是，目前对这种方法的研究很少。该博士学位研究的主要目的是通过提供有关活动起搏和自我调节的建议和指导，并通过帮助他们管理疲劳症状，从而开发一种干预措施来促进患有疲劳症状的人的PA。该项目的发现也将被传播给卫生专业人员（CRESTA诊所）和学术受众。联合研究的最佳实践（加拿大UBC）将在国际上掌握。
