Benefits of exercise training for men with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. 1991

L J McCargar, and J Taunton, and S Paré

Twelve healthy men with IDDM participated in a 12-week walking/jogging exercise program. Pre- and postexercise assessment of dietary intakes, body composition, biochemical measures, and exercise performance indicators were completed. Subjects exercised either 3 or 5 days per week for 1 hour at 60% to 80% of estimated maximal heart rate. Dietary intakes showed a voluntary reduction in fat intake as a percent of total energy from 40% +/- 7% (mean +/- SD) to 37% +/- 8% (P = .053). No change occurred over time in body composition measures except for a significant reduction in the waist-to-hip ratio from 0.87 +/- 0.04 to 0.86 +/- 0.04 (P = .007). Fasting serum glucose and lipid levels did not change over time. Exercise capacity improved, as shown by an increased time to exhaustion on a treadmill run from 7.9 +/- 3.7 minutes to 9.7 +/- 3.8 minutes (P less than .001); and a lower heart rate at a constant work load--from 183 +/- 18 beats per minute preexercise to 175 +/- 20 beats per minute postexercise (P = .022). The study showed that healthy male subjects with IDDM can benefit from regular exercise with a redistribution of body fat and improved exercise capacity.

D003922	Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1	A subtype of DIABETES MELLITUS that is characterized by INSULIN deficiency. It is manifested by the sudden onset of severe HYPERGLYCEMIA, rapid progression to DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS, and DEATH unless treated with insulin. The disease may occur at any age, but is most common in childhood or adolescence.
