Summary

Randomized study on the comparison between aerobic training versus progressive resistance training over a 2 months period for older adults with type 2 diabetes. The hypothesis is that progressive resistance training is just as effective as aerobic training on Hba1c and could be an alternative training for those older diabetic patients who cannot participate in aerobic exercise.

Conditions

  • Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Interventions

OTHER

Aerobic Training

18 sessions over 2 months period. Each session consist of 50 minutes of aerobic training at 65-70 % of maximum predicted heart rate

OTHER

Progressive resistance training

18 sessions completed in 2 months. each session consists of 50 minutes of resistance training which is made up of 3 sets of 10 repetitions of nine resistive exercises using machines and free weights at 65-70% of 1-repetitive maximum.
