Recreational training improves cardiovascular adaptations, metabolic profile and mental health of elderly women with type-2 diabetes mellitus.
2020
We investigated the effects of a recreational training (RET) protocol in elderly women with type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). We hypothesized that non-conventional physical activities of RET protocol might improve clinical outcomes regarding cardiovascular function, metabolic profile and mental health as participants keep the adherence to the protocol during the 3-month follow-up. Cardiovascular parameters (heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure), circulating biomarkers (glucose and lipids) and salivary cortisol were attenuated in response to exercise. RET also reduced anxiety and depression indexes. RET protocol constitutes a potential therapeutic approach for managing T2DM in elderly women.
