Acute and cronic effect of physical exercise in the glicemic and lipidic profile in type 2 diabetic subjects

Abstract

This work had the purpose of verifying the acute and chronic effect of physical exercise (PE) program in the metabolic control in subjects with type 2 diabetes. The group of study was composed for 8 sedentary of both the sexes, with 57.6 ± 4.9 years. The PE program was constituted of 3 weekly sessions, during 12 weeks, composed by walking or weight resisted exercise. They had data collected given reference to anthropometric variables, biochemical variables, before, after 6 and 12 weeks of PE program. The capillary glycemia was verified before and after one of the weekly sessions of PE. The average of the capillary glycemia reduced significantly. None of the morphologic variables had reduced significantly, as chronic effect of the training, although the sum of skinfolds and %FC had reduced after of PE program. Only the HDL had presented effect of the training. However, despite the other biochemical variables didn’t present significant reductions, some subjects have passed from the inadequate condition to an adequate adjusted condition. From the results obtained it is suggested that the PE presents a favorable acute effect under capillary glycemia and a favorable chronic effect under morphological and biochemical variables in type 2 diabetes.
