High-intensity Interval Training Prescriptions to Reduce the Risk of Complications Linked to Type 2 Diabetes: the Role of Interval Length on Clinical Benefits and on Physiological Mechanisms

Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) prevalence has steadily been rising in the past decades and its complications, including cardiovascular diseases (CVD), are a major public health concern.

To lower CVD risk and to maintain an adequate glycemic control, Diabetes Canada recommends aerobic exercise of high-intensity interval training (HIIT). The leading hypothesis of this study is that longer intervals will favor an anti-inflammatory immune state, and that and that it will be correlated with reduced arterial stiffness and blood pressure.
