Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Former members of the Canadian (or Allied Forces; e.g., NATO countries) military, or current members of the Canadian military, and not experience any contraindication which might prevent that person from participating in moderate-intensity physical activity.
  • Self-identification as a man (if sex at birth is 'female' but participants identify as 'man' they are eligible to participate).
  • Have received full dosage of the COVID-19 vaccination (min 2 injections) and must provide proof of vaccination, as this is required to access all active military bases in Canada.
  • Be able to read and understand English or French.
  • Have access to a computer, tablet, or other device, that has access to the internet.
  • Live at, or in close proximity to, one of the nine study locations (Esquimalt, BC; Edmonton, AB, Shilo, MB; Borden, ON; Kingston, ON; Petawawa, ON; Valcartier, QC; Montreal, QC; Gagetown, NB)

Exclusion

  • Not a former member of the Canadian (or Allied Forces; e.g., NATO countries) military, or current member of the Canadian military.
  • Unable to participate in moderate-intensity physical activity (as screened via the PAR-Q and ePARmedX), including a lack of ability to receive doctor's clearance for participating in physical activity.
  • Unable to speak or read English or French
  • Lack of internet access which prevents access to online materials (e.g., questionnaires).
  • Participants do not self-identify as 'man'. If participants disclose 'sex' as female but self-identify their gender identity as 'man' they are eligible to participate in the study and we would include their psychological responses in the main analyses. In such an instance, their biological measures (blood draws, blood pressure, and physical fitness tests) would be analyzed separately from those whose sex (male) and gender identity (man) are concordant.
  • Not living in proximity to one of the participating sites (in order to take part in the in-person group-based activities).
