ImpactHigh impact

The widespread acknowledgment of resistance training as an effective intervention suggests that these discussions could influence health practices and perceptions.

Abstract in brief

  • Resistance training (RT) effectively improves blood sugar control, body fat, and lipid profiles in people at risk for type 2 diabetes.
  • The review analyzed 14 controlled trials with 668 participants and found significant benefits of RT on key health markers such as HbA1c, fasting glucose, cholesterol, and triglycerides.
  • Including a dietary component along with RT did not lead to additional improvements, indicating RT alone is a promising intervention for preventing or delaying T2D in at-risk individuals.
