Resistance and aerobic exercise combo tied to superior Blood sugar control in diabetes: Study
A new research indicates that combined resistance and aerobic training regimens and High Intensity Training convey superior improvements in blood sugar control in diabetes.;
Sweden: Training regimens that improve fitness and metabolism are beneficial for controlling blood sugar in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and hence, they should be encouraged to do the same, suggests a recent study in the journal Diabetologia.
Exercise training in general improves blood sugar control in types 2 diabetes patients. However there is no information on the precise training regimen that confers the most beneficial metabolic adaptations for glycemic and blood sugar control in this population.
Blood sugar is commonly considered too high if it is higher than 130 mg/dl before a meal or higher than 180 mg/dl two hours after the first bite of a meal. However, most of the signs and symptoms of high blood sugar don't appear until the blood sugar level is higher than 250 mg/dl.
Exercising leads to high energy demands that stimulate cardiorespiratory function and substrate mobilization and oxidation. Repeated exercise bouts improve athletic performance through whole-body adaptations. Specific physiological challenges are being posed by distinct exercise modalities and intensities and nutritional conditions. This subsequently induces different adaptations to the training. Athletes achieve individualized training goals and maximize performance by modifying these variables.
