THE EFFECT OF SPRINT TRAINING AND COMBINED AEROBIC AND STRENGTH TRAINING ON SOME INFLAMMATORY MARKERS AND INSULIN RESISTANCE IN WOMEN WITH DIABETES MELLITUS (T2DM)

The purpose of this study is to the comparison of the effect of 12 weeks of sprint training and concurrent aerobic and strength training on high sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and insulin resistance in women with diabetes mellitus (T2DM)
52 overweight female type 2 diabetic patients (age; 45-60 years old and fasting blood glucose ≥ 126 mg/dl (7.0 mmol/l)) were assessed for eligibility. Participants were assigned to intense interval training group (N=17), concurrent resistance- endurance training group (N=17) and control group (N=18). The combined strength-endurance group did 12 weeks, three sessions per week endurance training with 60 % of maximal heart rate and two session resistance training with 70 % 1-RM. Intense interval training group did three session/week of 4-10 repetition of all out 30s Wingate on ergometer were included 10 weeks of concurrent resistance- endurance training and intense interval training.
The results showed that following sprint training, there were significant changes in hs-CRP (p Intense sprint training compare to concurrent strength-endurance training can have better inflammatory status for patients with type 2diabete.
