Summary

Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) face an increased risk of obesity, hypertension, and hyperglycemia, attributed to impaired cardiorespiratory fitness, elevated Hb1AC levels, and impaired lipid status. Therefore, effective prevention of complications and T2DM-related diseases is crucial for increasing the life expectancy of T2DM patients. Regular exercise plays a crucial role in the prevention and management of diabetes and its associated complications. However, most T2DM patients are not engaged in exercise. The most common causes are a lack of time, monotonous training patterns, and the severe exhaustion patients experience after recently developed and effective HIIT and SIT programs. Therefore, recent studies have explored the concept of "exercise snacking" (brief isolated bouts (\< 1 min) of intense exercise spread throughout the day

) as a promising strategy to improve glycemic control, functional capacity, and cardiometabolic health among clinical and healthy populations. However, the type, intensity, and volume of exercise bouts that result in the best improvement are unknown. Therefore, we hypothesize that these exercise modalities may also acutely improve glycaemic control in sedentary overweight patients with T2DM.

1. This study will examine the acute impact of two modalities of ''Exercise Snacking'', compared with a no-exercise control (CON), on glycemic control and blood pressure
2. Compare the acute effects of two ''Exercise Snacking'' modalities
3. Collect data on individuals' perceptions of each workout mode using measures of Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE), enjoyment, affect, and adverse events
