Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is the most common type of DM, representing about 90% of DM worldwide. It is a chronic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia as a result of inadequate insulin secretion frequently on the background of insulin resistance. Globally, the prevalence of T2DM is rising at an alarming rate. Exercise would seem to be a vital technique for correcting this trend because this epidemic is linked to increases in obesity and physical inactivity. Physical activity is a general term that includes all movement that increases energy use, while exercise is a more specific form of physical activity that is structured and designed to improve physical fitness. Physical activity is an essential part of prevention and treatment of T2DM. Studies have shown that regular physical activity can effectively prevent the progression of the disease, improve insulin sensitivity and blood glucose control, improve the quality of life and well-being, contribute to weight loss and reduce cardiovascular risk and overall mortality. Furthermore, regular physical activity lower the incidence of other comorbidities such as hypertension, dyslipidemia and depression.
