The Change of HbA1C Parameters and the Body Mass Index in Diabetes Treatment Cycle Depending on the Frequency of the Undertaken Physical Activity Program

Summary/Abstract: Diabetes is treated as a set of metabolic diseases, which, in light of today’s knowledge, significantly influences the change in the treatment strategy of this disease. Physical exercise has become an indispensable component in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. The aim of this paper is to assess changes in HbA1C level and BMI,depending on the frequency of the workout scheme (daily exercises vs. every other day) in the process of diabetes treatment.The research was carried out on a sample of subjects aged 48-75. 82 patients,divided into two groups, took part in the research. In Group I, the workout programwas applied daily, while in Group II – every other day. In both groups the session length was 35 minutes. After the analysis of differences between the groups, it was ascertained that no statistically significant differences (p>0.05) in the analysis of the BMI mean value can be observed between the women from both groups. Similarly,men from Group I and II did not exhibit any statistically significant differences(p>0.05) as far as the mean value of the BMI was concerned. While analyzing the mean value of HbA1C after completing the research, no statistically significant differences(p>0.05) were found between men and women from the respective groups. Conclusions from the study were as follows: no relation between BMI andHbA1C level, and the frequency of exercises was found; patients who participated in the treatment accompanied by physical activity control and close medical supervision,obtained clinical improvement and gained mobilization to undertake physical activity after the study was complete.
