Brief summary

Resistance exercise is effective in improving glycemic control in diabetes patients. The effectiveness of a home-based resistance exercise program has not been establish.

Detailed description

Exercise play an important role in diabetes control. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) approved of resistive exercise as an effective method in controlling blood sugar of type 2 diabetes patients. Few community-based intervention has been establish. So the authors developed the low-cost community based resistance exercise program to promote exercise in of type 2 diabetes patients.

Interventions

BEHAVIORALResistance Exercise Training Program With Rubber Bands

Resistive exercise consist of 5-min warm up, at least 30 min resistive exercise using rubber band as recommendation (8-12 times per set, at least 3 sets per day and at least 3 days per week) and 5-min cool down
