Simple total-body resistance exercise for muscle growth in diabetes
Part of Brain & nervous system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests a simplified total-body resistance exercise program to help people with type 2 diabetes build muscle and improve health. It may be a good fit if you are looking for a safe, guided exercise option.

This trial tests whether a specific strength-training program (called progressive resistance training) can help older adults with both type 2 diabetes and sarcopenia (muscle loss) improve muscle strength and overall function.
This study tests a short, combined exercise program (mixing cardio and strength training) for people 60+ with type 2 diabetes who have signs of muscle loss. The goal is to see if this exercise approach can improve strength, physical function, and overall health.
This study tests whether a special exercise program can help middle-aged and older adults who have both type 2 diabetes and muscle loss. It aims to improve muscle strength, balance, and overall health.
This study looks at muscle loss (sarcopenia) in people 60 and older who have had type 2 diabetes for at least 5 years. It aims to understand how diabetes might affect muscle health.
This study tests whether a special strength-training program, designed with changing exercise levels (periodization), can help people with type 2 diabetes improve their blood sugar control and overall fitness. It is a good option for adults with diabetes who are not currently in a regular exercise routine.
This study tests whether strength training can help improve mood and quality of life in women with type 1 diabetes. You will be asked to do resistance exercises and report how you feel.
