Key result
A six-week aerobic exercise and walking protocol decreased blood glucose levels and improved glycemic balance in sportspersons with type I or type II diabetes compared to routine activities.
Why the study?
The study was conducted to evaluate the effects of aerobic exercises and walking on sportspersons with type I and type II diabetes.
Does an aerobic exercise and walk protocol improve blood glucose levels and other metabolic parameters in diabetic sportspersons?
Does an aerobic exercise and walk protocol improve blood glucose levels and other metabolic parameters in diabetic sportspersons?
A 6-week aerobic exercise and walking protocol improves glycemic control, insulin resistance, and blood pressure in sportspersons with type I and type II diabetes.
May support glycemic benefits of aerobic exercise in diabetic sportspersons; hypothesis-generating and requires randomized confirmation.
Objective: Diabetes have a central contribution with type I or type II towards the healthy lifestyles of sportspersons. Aerobic exercise and daily walking stay them fit and control their glucose levels in their bloodstream. The aim of this study was to find out the effects of aerobic exercises and walk on the sportspersons of type I and II diabetes. Methodology: The existing research has experimental design itself wherein pre-tests and post-tests were employed to make sure the novelty of results. The data was collected from the diabetic sportspersons dividing them equally into control group (N-20) and experimental group (N-20). Both groups had type I (N-20) and type II (N-20) diabetic individuals. Aerobic exercise and walk protocol was applied for six weeks on experimental group, whereas, control group continued their routine activities. Afterwards, the data was collected through pre and post treatments and edited into SPSS (v-26). The collected data was analyzed through descriptive statistics using frequencies and percentages, whereas, T-test was applied to make the differences of pre and post treatments. Results: The findings has shown that aerobic exercises and walk decrease the higher levels of glucose in blood and enable to stable glycemic balance, weight loss maintenance, decrease insulin resistance, blood pressure decrease, and blood glucose control. Conclusion: The prominent differences were observed between control and experimental groups either type I or type II. It was concluded that the sportspersons may reduce the excessive glucose engaging in aerobic exercises and walk on daily basis rather than using medications. They should spend their happy lives and get rid of medications and insulin through spending their spare time using light exercises and maintain their glucose levels in blood as well.

Ayub et al. (2021) studied Type I and Type II Diabetes (n=40). Aerobic exercise and walk protocol vs. Routine activities was evaluated on Blood glucose levels. A six-week aerobic exercise and walking protocol decreased blood glucose levels and improved glycemic balance in sportspersons with type I or type II diabetes compared to routine activities.
