Glycemic Modulation Resulting from Different Orders of Physical Training in Type 2 Diabetics: A Case Study |Biomedgrid

Aerobic training and strength training are recommended for the treatment of diabetes, but it is not clear the effect of the sequence of these trainings in the same session for glycemic modulation of type 2 diabetics. This study aimed to verify the glycemic modulation of type 2 diabetics submitted to different orders of training. It was characterized as a case study, approved by the Ethics and Research Committee 007/09. Five women with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) participated in this study, attending a program of supervised physical exercise for diabetics of a public university in the Northeast/Brazil. They conducted 12 sessions of Combined Training (aerobic and strength in the same session). The program was divided in two moments: first moment: six sessions, where the order of exercises was Aerobic and Strength (AF); second moment: six sessions, where it was Strength and Aerobic (FA).
