About
Investigators want to study to see if patients who participate in a physical activity intervention involving increasing daily step counts will have better mini asthma quality of life questionnaire (Mini AQLQ) scores at the end of the study period compared to patients that are in the control group and do not increase daily step counts. Participants will be randomized into the two groups.
