Combined exercise for people with Type 2 diabetes mellitus: A systematic review
Why is exercise important for Type 2 diabetes patients? Combining resistance and aerobic exercise controlled glucose levels more extensively than one type alone.

  • How do different aerobic and resistance training modes affect glucose control?
  • What are the effects of different training and progression methods?
  • Is any one type of exercise more optimal than others?
