Low-volume combined aerobic and resistance high-intensity interval training in type 2 diabetes: a randomised controlled trial.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The objective of this study was to compare the effects of novel, time-efficient, low-volume combined aerobic and resistance high-intensity interval training (C-HIIT), and current exercise guidelines (210 min/week of combined moderate-intensity continuous training (C-MICT)), with waitlist control (CON) on glycaemic control in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D).

Methods

Sixty-nine low-active people with T2D were randomised to 8 weeks of supervised C-HIIT (78 min/week), supervised C-MICT (210 min/week), or waitlist CON. Those in waitlist CON were re-randomised to supervised C-HIIT/C-MICT at week 8. Following 8 weeks of supervised training, participants completed 10 months of self-directed exercise. Outcomes were assessed at baseline, week 8 and month 12. Parti
