Study Summary

This trial will compare the effects of two exercise interventions on people with type-2 diabetes - a high intensity body-weight circuit (HIBC) and a traditional exercise intervention (TEI).

Who is the study for?
This trial is for middle-aged individuals recently diagnosed with type-2 diabetes who haven't started any medicinal treatment and are not insulin-dependent. They should have an HbA1c level between 6% and 8%, no current exercise program, and must be willing to be randomly assigned to a workout group. Smokers or those with kidney, lung, heart diseases, past revascularization procedures, or cognitive dysfunction cannot participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing the effectiveness of a new high intensity body-weight circuit (HIBC) training compared to traditional exercise interventions (TEI). It aims to see which one better improves metabolic profile, body composition, and fitness in people with type-2 diabetes.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed for these physical activities, participants may experience general exercise-related issues like muscle soreness, fatigue or injury. The intensity of the workouts could also pose risks for those unaccustomed to vigorous activity.

Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: high intensity body-weight circuit (HIBC)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
HIBC Exercise Protocol- circuit repetition and order is as follows: modified squats (10 repetitions), modified rows (5 repetitions), crunches (10), and modified push-ups (5). The exercise sessions will involve repeating a series of repetitions of each movement in sequence, and completing as many sequences as possible in good form in the time allotted for the exercise (initially, 5 minutes). Three sessions per week will be completed at home. After three weeks of training, participants will be asked to add a fourth session each week. Initially, the HIBC sessions will be five minutes long, and the duration of the sessions will increase by one minute each week as tolerated beginning in week four, peaking at 10-minutes per session (warm up not included in this timing) as early as the eighth week of training. Session duration will be capped at 10-minutes.
Group II: traditional exercise intervention (TEI)Active Control1 Intervention
TEI Protocol- The American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) and the American Diabetes Association (ADA) joint position stand on exercise prevention for T2DM recommends participants undertake at least 150 min/week of moderate to vigorous activity in high-risk adults 5,13. Therefore, this intervention will initially consist of three sessions per week of 40 minutes of continuous physical activity, and increase to a fourth weekly session following the third week. The TEI modality will consist of walking exercise at a moderate intensity of 40- 60% heart rate reserve (([maximal heart rate - resting heart rate] x 0.4-0.6) + resting heart rate). Participants will continue this protocol for 16-weeks.
