They performed physical activity utilizing activity tracker & application for 24 weeks. The following items were measured before, middle and after the program : physical activity adherence, metabolic syndrome factor and body composition. RESULTS Results of this study showed that physical activity adherence appeared nothing in drop-rate of male(9.35%) and female(8.63%) : So adherence were male(90.65%) and female(91.37%). And changes of metabolic syndrome factor variables were significantly improved in total cholesterol, triglyceride, systolic blood pressure, and glucose in activity tracker & application use group and control group after 24 weeks.
