Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary outcome of the study will be the change in metabolic profile in older adults with type 2 diabetes after 12 weeks of intervention with resistance and combined training.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Anthropometry and body composition will be assessed using bioelectrical impedance ;Muscle strength will be evaluated through one-repetition maximum (1RM) testing and handgrip strength;Physical performance will be measured using the Senior Fitness Test, the Timed Up and Go (TUG) test, and the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB);Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) will be measured using a fluorescent AGE reader
