Strength Training Regimen for Normal Weight Diabetics (STRONG-D) Study

Description

The goal of the STRONG-D Study is to determine the best exercise regimen for normal-weight diabetics by comparing the improvement in type 2 diabetes control (e.g., % HbA1c reduction) among three intervention arms: strength training vs aerobic training vs combination (strength + aerobic) training.

The study will allow researchers to better understand the effects of different types of exercises on type 2 diabetes, and will help shape exercise guidelines for those people with type 2 diabetes who are at normal weight.

Timothy Church, MD, MPH, PhD, of the Pennington Biomedical Research Center, Louisiana State University, is Co-Investigator.
