 A group of volunteers performed aerobic exercise while the other volunteer group performs progressive resistance training for 8 weeks, completing 18 sessions in total. The group of progressive resistance strength training while nine in the aerobic group performed for 50 minutes. Improved HbA1c approximately the same in both groups.
