Effort During Resistance Training in Type 2 Diabetes

Description

In this study the primary aims are to investigate the effect of resistance exercise training with different degrees of effort on glycemic control and psychological variables in individuals living with type 2 diabetes mellitus. As a secondary aim, investigate adherence and dropout rates and reasons for dropping out and adhering or not to the protocols.
