Effect of Aerobic Training Versus Resistance Training on Plasma Homocystiene in Diabetic Patients
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The goal of this [clinical trial] is to [ compare ] in [ diabetic male patients ]. The main question to answer is :
Will be any difference between aerobic exercises and resistance exercises in improving levels of homocysteine, cholesterol and insulin in diabetic patients?
Participants will take their medications and group of them do aerobic exercises and another group do resistance training

Detailed Description
40 male diabetic patients diagnosed by type 2 diabetes mellites to evaluate therapeutics outcomes of aerobic exercises versus resistance exercises as a treatment tool on homocysteine, insulin and cholesterol levels in diabetic patients.
The patients will be randomly assigned to two equal (in number) groups:
Group (A) Twenty male patients will receive moderate intensity aerobic exercises in a form of supervised treadmill walking for 30-45 mins performed 3 times/ week for 12 weeks.
Group (B) Twenty male patients will receive resistance training program comprised 30-45 min performed 3 times /week for 12 weeks.
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: aerobic exercises group (group A ) 20 male patients with diabetes mellites Attended the program of walking on treadmill for 12 weeks according to the following parameters. Exercise prescription: Intensity: started by 60-75% of target heart rate according to each patient response. Duration: Each session consisted of five minutes warming up firstly then 25-30 minutes time of session ended by five minutes cool down exercises Frequency: Three times / week (day after day) for 12 weeks |
Other: aerobic exercises

| Experimental: resistance exercises group (group B) 20 male patients with diabetes mellites will participate in resistance training exercises 30-45 mins. The subject will warm up and cool down for at least five to seven minutes each, (before and after exercise) with initial load of 60% of 1 repetition maximum. This program consists of 3 sets of 8 to 12 repetitions, then increasing load when subject was able to complete 12 repetitions. A rest period of 1.5 min was established between each set. Mode: 4 upper body exercises (bench press, seated row, shoulder press, and pull down), 3 leg exercises (leg press, extension, and flexion), abdominal crunches and back extensions. with the individualized workloads at 60% of 1RM. Duration: 30 min-45 min (total session). Frequency: Three times / week (day after day). Intensity: increased load was established when subject was able to complete 12 repetitions. |
Other: resistance exercises

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- homocystiene [12 weeks of training]
Homocysteine was measured with an enzyme linked immunosorbent (ELISA) method. The upper limit of normal is 15 μmol/l
Secondary Outcome Measures
- insulin [12 weeks of training]
normal value <25 mlu/L fasting
- cholestrol [12 weeks of trianing]
Desirable cholesterol levels are considered to be those below 200 mg/dL in adults
