We are recruiting individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D) in need of an exercise program, aged 30 to 55, to help us test how exercise affects heart health, blood vessels, and blood sugar.
This study will test how exercise impacts heart health, blood vessel function, and how the body uses sugar, among adults with and without T2D.
If you join this study, we will complete testing to see how your heart, blood vessel, and muscles are currently functioning. These tests, called baseline tests, show how well you can exercise. They include riding a stationary bicycle while we measure your oxygen use, doing a scan of your heart and muscles using an ultrasound, checking to see how your body uses sugar, a small muscle sample (biopsy), and an MRI scan. Then, you will do 15 weeks of exercise training after which we will repeat all the tests.
About 7-8 months
