Background: Diabetes is a major problem for health systems and physical activity is one of the most important modifiable and life style factors to management of diabetes. This study aimed to determine the status of physical activity (PA) in patients with type 2 diabetes based on Trans Theoretical model (TTM).Methods: This study was conducted on 393 diabetic patient’s type 2 diabetes in 2013 at the city of Khorramabad, participants were selected by convenience sampling method. Data were collected through a questionnaire consisted of 5 parts and were analyzed with using the statistical software SPSS-18 and Pearson correlation coefficients, chi-square test, t-test and ANOVA test. The P-value for statistical significance is defined as P < 0.05Findings: In this study the majority of participants (48.9%, 192 patients) were in pre contemplation stage and only 15% of them were in the action and maintenance stages. Mean minutes of PA was 20.6±11.9 and the mean of PA in maintenance group was significantly higher than other groups. A negative significant relationship was found between the average daily PA and perceived benefits, and a positive significant correlation with processes of change, self-efficacy and decision balance. Frequency of PA in week had a positive significant correlation with self-efficacy.Conclusion: The majority of patients had no a plan to exercise in the next 6 months and physical activity levels of the patients were poor. Regarding the relationship between self-efficacy and decision balance with an average of exercise time in day and frequency of exercise in week provision of educational programs focusing on these structures can help to improve the level of physical activity.Key Words: Physical Activity, Diabetes, TTM, Self-Efficacy, Process of Change
