Our study revealed a high prevalence of not meeting current physical activity guidelines among pregnant people at high risk for GDM. Physical activity self-efficacy played an important mediating role in predicting moderate-intensity physical activity. Future studies should focus on enhancing self-efficacy to improve moderate-intensity physical activity for pregnant people at high risk for GDM.
