Study Notes
Aerobic Exercise Recommendations
- Frequency: at least 3-5 times/week
- Intensity: moderate (40-60% Vo2max) or vigorous (75-80%)
- Duration: at least 150 minutes/week (bouts of at least 10 minutes)
- Program duration: at least 2 months for clinical benefits
Resistance Exercise Recommendations
- Frequency: 2-3 times/week on non-consecutive days
- Intensity: moderate (50% of 1RM) or vigorous (75-80% of 1RM)
- Duration: not specified
- Program duration: not specified
Diabetic Complications
- Peripheral neuropathy
- Delayed wound healing
- Autonomic neuropathy
- CVD
- Retinopathy (no HIIT!)
- Nephropathy
Physical Activity Recommendations
- Daily exercise or at least not allowing more than 2 days to elapse between exercise sessions
- Structured lifestyle interventions that include at least 150 min/week of physical activity and dietary changes resulting in weight loss of 5%–7% are recommended to prevent or delay the onset of T2D
Sedentary Behavior
- Reduce sedentary time
- Interrupt prolonged sitting with bouts of light activity every 30 minutes
Monitoring Blood Glucose during Exercise
- Risk of hypoglycemia (insulin injection)
- Risk of hypoglycemia increases with session duration > 60 minutes
- Need for exogenous insulin
HIIT and Blood Glucose
- Risk of hyperglycemia
- Catecholamines (dopamine, (nor)epinephrine) ↑ and growth hormones
- Hepatic glucose production ↑ → ↑ glucose levels in the body
Glycemic Control during Exercise
- Check glycemia before, during, and after exercise
- Hyperglycemia may require exogenous insulin
Exercise and Type 1 Diabetes
- Aerobic exercise decreases glycaemia
- Mixed activities are associated with glucose stability
- Anaerobic exercise increases glycaemia
- Individual responses depend on various factors, including duration and intensity of activity, initial blood glucose concentrations, individual fitness, and nutritional status
Introduction to Diabetes Mellitus
- 90% of all cases of DM
- Developing > developed countries (69% vs 20%)
- >40 years of age
- Multifactorial: genetic factors, environmental factors, insulin resistance + impaired insulin secretion
Environmental Factors of Diabetes Mellitus
- Aging
- Obesity
- Alcohol
- Smoking
- Stress (↑cortisol & abnormality in sex hormones)
- ↓ Energy consumption (↓ exercise)
- Most of them related to visceral adipose tissue (VAT)!
