Summary

This trial aims to study how different levels of resistance exercise affect blood sugar control and mental well-being in people with type 2 diabetes. Additionally, the study will look at how many participants stick to the

Who is the study for?

This trial is for individuals with type 2 diabetes who are interested in how different levels of effort during resistance exercise training can affect their blood sugar control and mental well-being. Details on specific inclusion or exclusion criteria were not provided.

What is being tested?

The study compares the effects of high-effort versus low-effort resistance exercise training on managing blood sugar levels and improving mood in people with type 2 diabetes. It also looks at how likely participants are to stick with these exercise programs.

What are the potential side effects?

Specific side effects aren't listed, but generally, resistance training may cause muscle soreness, fatigue, or injury if not done correctly. Participants should follow instructions carefully to minimize risks.
