Summary

It is well-known that regular physical activity (PA) can improve glycemic control and physical fitness in type 2 diabetes patients. However, studies examining the effects of PA in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are limited. Interval walking training (IWT) is a careful type of PA consisting of repeatedly cycles of 3 min. fast and slow walking. The investigators aimed to examine, if IWT is feasible as PA intervention for GDM patients, and to examine the effects of IWT on glycemic control, PA levels and physical fitness.
