Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess whether 4-months of interval-walking exercise training improves glycemic control in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The effects of interval-walking training will be compared to continuous-walking exercise in a randomised, controlled trial design. Changes in glycemic control will be examined using oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTT) with stable isotope methodology. In addition, insulin sensitivity and secretion will be examined using glucose clamps combined with glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP).

Conditions

  • Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Exercise Training - Interval Walking

Duration: 4 months. Exercise training sessions will be performed 3-5 days/week. Sessions will consist of walking for 3 minutes at 70% VO2max followed by 3 minutes at 40% VO2max for up to 60 minutes/day.

BEHAVIORAL

Exercise - Continuous Walking

Duration: 4 months. Exercise training sessions will be performed 3-5 days/week and will consist of walking for up to 60 minutes/day at 55% VO2max.
