Summary

The Insulin Sensitivity using Aerobic Interval Conditioning (ISAIC) trial will compare traditional aerobic training (AER) to interval training (INT) in sedentary, overweight/obese men at risk for pre-diabetes. The investigators will randomly assign 42 individuals to 3 months of monitored exercise using a randomly assisgned design where participants will exercise under either AER or INT training conditions. The AER training condition will be consistent with "standard-of-care" recommendations. Exercise training will entail one 3-month blocks of either AER or INT. Training will consist of 1) a 1-month ramp up period, 2) 1-month of traditional aerobic training and 3) 1-month of either continued AER or INT.

Conditions

  • Pre-diabetes

Interventions

OTHER

Behavioral: exercise

Specific Aim: We will identify, recruit, assess, and randomly assign 42 sedentary, overweight-obese individuals who are at risk for pre-diabetes to an AER or INT training group in order to test the hypothesis: • Individuals randomized to INT will have greater improvements in insulin sensitivity than individuals assigned to traditional AER. Secondary Aim: We will measure maximal cardiorespiratory fitness (VO2max/peak) in order to test the hypothesis: • Individuals randomized to the INT group will have a greater improvement in VO2max/peak than individuals in traditional AER group.
