Study Summary

This trial will help researchers understand why people with pre-diabetes are more fatigued during exercise, in hopes of developing more effective exercise programs.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 30-85 with pre-diabetes or type 2 diabetes, characterized by specific HbA1c and blood glucose levels. It's not open to smokers, those with poor glycemic control, severe obesity, untreated hypothyroidism, certain medication users, or individuals with cardiovascular or musculoskeletal conditions that limit exercise.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study investigates why people with pre-diabetes experience increased muscle fatigue during exercise. Participants will undergo a novel exercise regimen that includes restricting blood flow to the limbs to understand vascular contributions to this fatigability.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While the document does not specify side effects directly related to the interventions being tested (Control Exercise and Blood Flow Restriction Exercise), potential risks may include discomfort from restricted blood flow or muscle soreness post-exercise.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Control ExerciseExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Low-load knee extension resistance training (20% of 1-RM) without blood flow restriction. A 10-cm wide inflatable cuff will be placed around the upper portion of the thigh but not inflated.
Group II: Blood Flow Restriction ExerciseExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Low-load knee extension resistance training (20% of 1-RM) with blood flow restriction using a 10-cm wide inflatable cuff placed around the most proximal part of the exercising thigh. Blood flow will be restricted in the BFR leg at above the limb occlusion pressure of the and this will be determined prior to the exercise while the participant is seated in the knee extensor machine. The cuff pressure during the BFR protocol will be 10 mmHg above limb occlusion pressure.
