Breaking sitting with light activities vs structured exercise

a randomised crossover study demonstrating benefits for glycaemic control and insulin sensitivity in type 2 diabetes

Duvivier, B.M.F.M., Schaper, N.C., Hesselink, M., Kan, L. van, Stienen, N., Winkens, B., ... Savelberg, H.H.C.M. (2016). Breaking sitting with light activities vs structured exercise: a randomised crossover study demonstrating benefits for glycaemic control and insulin sensitivity in type 2 diabetes. Diabetologia

Aims/hypothesis: We aimed to examine the effects of breaking sitting with standing and light-intensity walking vs an energy-matched bout of structured exercise on 24 h glucose levels and insulin resistance in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Conclusions/interpretation: Breaking sitting with standing and light-intensity walking effectively improved 24 h glucose levels and improved insulin sensitivity in individuals with type 2 diabetes to a greater extent than structured exercise. Thus, our results suggest that breaking sitting with standing and light-intensity walking may be an alternative to structured exercise to promote glycaemic control in patients type 2 diabetes.
