Comparison of Glycemic Behavior between Strength Training, High Intensity Resistance Training (HIRT), High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT): A Case Study

Serum proteins designated as liver function biomarkers are used to evaluate patients for hepatic dysfunction. Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM2) is generally a defect in insulin action and secretion and in the regulation of hepatic glucose production. Exercise to treat type 2 diabetes has had positive impacts on the lives of diabetics. The aim of this study is to analyze the effects of the glycemic curve in three different types of training: Strength Training (TF), High Intensity Resistant Training (HIRT) and Interval High Intensity Training (HIIT). The sample is a 57year-old, sedentary type 2 diabetic who underwent the training method Strength Training (TF), High Intensity Resistant Training (HIRT), and High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT). once a week at night. Pre-study anamnesis, preand post-exercise glycemia were performed. The overall results were satisfactory presenting HIIT as the most effective method for acute post-exercise blood glucose reduction (reducing 29.62%, 34.25%, 38.89 and 36.11% immediately at 10, 20, 30 minutes after exertion respectively). It was concluded that physical training positively influenced the reduction of blood glucose as an acute effect, but HIIT was the most effective method.
