Study Details

Brief summary:

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) prevalence has steadily been rising in the past decades and its complications, including cardiovascular diseases (CVD), are a major public health concern.

To lower CVD risk and to maintain an adequate glycemic control, Diabetes Canada recommends aerobic exercise of high-intensity interval training (HIIT). The leading hypothesis of this study is that longer intervals will favor an anti-inflammatory immune state, and that and that it will be correlated with reduced arterial stiffness and blood pressure.

Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

experimental: Rest, HIIT-4, HIIT-10

Both arms start with the rest condition and the order of the two other conditions (HIIT-4 and HIIT-10) is determined at random.

This arm's sequence of intervention is : 1-Rest; 2- HIIT-4 and 3- HIIT-10.

experimental: Rest, HIIT-10, HIIT-4

Both arms start with the rest condition and the order of the two other conditions (HIIT-4 and HIIT-10) is determined at random.

This arm's sequence of intervention is : 1- Rest; 2- HIIT-10 and 3- HIIT-4.

Interventions

High-intensity interval training (HIIT)-4

4 intervals of 4 minutes at 90% of maximum cardiac frequency, interspersed with 3-minute rests at 70% of maximum cardiac frequency. The session will last 32 minutes, including warm-up and cooldown.

High-intensity interval training (HIIT)-10

10 intervals of 1 minutes at 90% of maximum cardiac frequency, interspersed with 1-minute rests at 70% of maximum cardiac frequency. The session will last 34 minutes, including warm-up and cooldown.

Rest

Participants are to stay seated for 30 minutes while reading or watching television.

Primary outcome measure

  • Change in ambulatory systolic and diastolic blood pressure [ Time Frame: During 24 hours after the three experimental conditions (Rest, HIIT-4 and HIIT-10) ]
