The Simplified Total-body Resistance Exercise for Muscular Hypertrophy for Diabetic Population (D-STORM) (D-STORM)

22 juni 2026 uppdaterad av: Muhamad Faiz Bin Alias, Universiti Teknologi Mara

The Simplified Total-body Resistance Exercise for Muscular Hypertrophy for Diabetic Population (D-STORM): Rationale and Study Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Type 2 diabetes is associated with progressive loss of muscle mass, which worsens blood sugar control and increases the risk of heart disease and disability. Resistance training (weight training) has been shown to build muscle and improve blood sugar levels, but most existing programmes use high intensities that are difficult for older or inactive people with diabetes to sustain.

This study tests a new resistance training programme called D-STORM (Simplified Total-body Resistance Exercise for Muscular Hypertrophy for Diabetic Population), which uses a lower, more manageable training load designed to be safe, tolerable, and effective for adults with Type 2 diabetes who are not on insulin.

Participants will be randomly assigned to either twice-weekly D-STORM training plus their usual diabetes care, or usual care alone, for 12 weeks. The main outcome measured is change in HbA1c (a blood test reflecting average blood sugar over 3 months). Body composition, walking capacity, blood pressure, heart rate, and quality of life will also be measured.

Studieöversikt

Detaljerad beskrivning

The D-STORM trial is a 2-arm parallel randomised controlled trial conducted at Hospital Sultan Al-Abdullah (HASA), Puncak Alam, Selangor, Malaysia. Adults aged 18 to 65 years with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (HbA1c 6.5% to 13.0%) who are not on insulin therapy will be recruited and randomly allocated 1:1 to the D-STORM intervention arm or the usual care arm.

The D-STORM programme consists of 6 compound resistance exercises performed twice weekly on non-consecutive days for 12 weeks, at 60-80% of one-repetition maximum (1RM), 2 working sets per exercise, using the double progression model with sets terminated at 1-3 repetitions in reserve (RIR).

The primary outcome is between-group difference in HbA1c (%) from baseline to 12 weeks, with a minimum clinically important difference of 1.0% absolute reduction. Secondary outcomes include body composition (bioelectrical impedance analysis; InBody 270), functional exercise capacity (Incremental Shuttle Walk Test), blood pressure, resting heart rate, and health-related quality of life (SF-36). Sample size: 124 participants (62 per arm), accounting for 10% dropout.

Intervention / Behandling
Experimentell: D-STORM Training plus Usual Care
Participants perform the D-STORM resistance training programme twice weekly on non-consecutive days for 12 weeks, comprising 6 compound exercises at 60-80% 1RM, 2 working sets per exercise, terminated at 1-3 repetitions in reserve, using the double progression model. Participants also continue their usual diabetes care throughout.
Twice-weekly progressive resistance training comprising 6 compound exercises (upper body pull, upper body push, lower body push, lower body pull) at 60-80% 1RM, 2 working sets per exercise per session (minimum 4 sets per muscle group per week), 8-12 repetitions per set, terminated at 1-3 repetitions in reserve. Load is progressively increased using the double progression model. Total intervention duration is 12 weeks.
Aktiv komparator: Usual Care
Participants receive standard diabetes care in accordance with the Malaysian Clinical Practice Guidelines for Type 2 Diabetes Management (6th Edition), including general physical activity recommendations of at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity per week. No structured or supervised exercise is provided.
Participants receive standard diabetes care in accordance with the Malaysian Clinical Practice Guidelines for Type 2 Diabetes Management (6th Edition), including general physical activity recommendations of at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity per week distributed over at least 3 days, with resistance exercise on a minimum of 2 non-consecutive days per week. No structured, supervised, or progressive training is provided.
