Abstract

The objective of the study was to compare general mobilisation exercises with aerobic exercises on exercise tolerance in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Thirty type 2 diabetes mellitus subjects of both the genders in age-group between 35 and 60 years were divided into 2 groups (A and B) and were subjected to a 6-minute walk test pre- and post-training exercise. Group A participants were subjected to general mobilisation exercises and group B to aerobic exercises. The six-minute walk test between the two groups (A and B) was statistically different at P=0.03. Our study showed a significant difference in improvement of exercise tolerance in Group-B subjects, who underwent aerobic exercise. In conclusion, aerobic exercise is a better health intervention in the improvement of exercise tolerance among type 2 diabetes mellitus subjects, which could improve their cardio-respiratory fitness and thereby prevent further cardiovascular complications and improve their well-being.
