In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The goal of this trial is to learn if blood flow restriction training with treadmill walking is possible for individuals living with type 2 diabetes. It will also learn about how the blood flow restriction with treadmill walking could improve health. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is 6 weeks of treadmill walking with blood flow restriction reasonable for people with type 2 diabetes to perform? Does treadmill walking with blood flow restriction training help manage type 2 diabetes better than just treadmill walking? Researchers will compare treadmill walking with blood flow restriction to treadmill walking without blood flow restriction to see if blood flow restriction works to manage type 2 diabetes based on fitness and blood sugar levels. Participants will: Perform treadmill walking with or without blood flow restriction for 96 minutes a week for 6 weeks. Visit the lab
