the Effect of Fasted Versus Post-meal HIIT on Glycemic Control in Men With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating high intensity interval training for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Completed, enrolled 123 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Background: Recently, high intensity interval training (HIIT) has emerged as a promising regimen for the management of type 2 diabetic subjects. However, there is no consensus on the best time for HIIT regarding nutritional status. Purpose: to investigate the effect of fasted versus postprandial HIIT training on glycemic control in men with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Methods: This study enrolled 123 subjects suffering from type 2 diabetes mellitus with ages between 40 and 60 years. Subjects were divided into 4 groups, The post-breakfast, post-lunch and post-dinner groups practiced HIIT 2h after breakfast, lunch, and dinner respectively. The HIIT program involved 3 sessions weekly for 12 weeks. Glycated hemoglobin, fasting blood glucose, fasting insulin, insulin sensitivity, body composition, and blood lipid values were evaluated pre- and post-intervention.

Timeline
Interventions
The subjects in the four groups performed 12 weeks of supervised HIIE program on a motorized treadmill (h/p/cosmos, Pulsar 4.0, Nussdorf-Traunstein, Germany) with a rate of three sessions weekly. The session commenced with a 5 min warming-up and concluded with a 5 min cooling down period. The exercise effort component consisted of 5 intervals of HIIT. Each interval continues for four min of HIIT with exercise intensity ranging from 75% to 90% of the peak heart rate. Each active recovery period between exercise intervals included moderate exercise at intensity of 50% to 60% of the peak heart rate. Every 3 weeks, the exercise intensity was increased by 5% starting with 75% of the HRmax in the first 3 weeks, 80% in the following 3 weeks and progressed to 90% the HRmax in the last 3 weeks. The subject's heart rate throughout the HIIT session was monitored using a polar heart rate monitor (Polar, Kempele, Finland).
