Effects of Home-based Resistance Exercise on Body Composition, Muscle Strength and Glycemic Control in People With Type 2 Diabetes.

December 9, 2021 updated by: Dr. Ebaa Al Ozairi, Dasman Diabetes Institute

This study investigates the effects of home-based resistance exercise training, compared to a control group, on body composition, muscle strength and glycaemic control in people with type 2 diabetes.

Half participants will be in the home-based exercise group and half in the control group.
