Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Age 30-65 years
- •Men and women
- •Body mass index (BMI) between 25 and 45 kg/m2
- •Sedentary (1 day or less per week of structured exercise)
- •Type 2 diabetes mellitus determined by self-report or by a fasting glucose \>126mg/dl
- •Weight stable (± 2 kg) for prior 3 months
- •Willing to commit to the schedule of assessment visits, including the exercise intervention
Exclusion Criteria
- •Currently taking insulin, injectable incretin mimetics and thiazolidinediones
- •Taking more than two glucose-lowering medications
- •Resting blood pressure ≥ 160/100 mm Hg
- •Triglycerides ≥ 500 mg/dL
- •Any renal, cardiac, liver, lung, or neurological disease that in the opinion of the principal investigator would compromise participant safety or the participants' ability to complete the exercise training protocol
- •Any significant disease or unstable medical condition (i.e., coronary heart disease, chronic renal failure, chronic hepatic disease, severe pulmonary disease)
- •Presence of clinically significant abnormalities on electrocardiogram (ECG) that is a contra-indication to exercise training
- •Pulse check ("Allen test") indicates participant has poor blood flow in the hands
- •Cancer (active malignancy with or without concurrent chemotherapy; except for basal cell carcinoma)
- •Pregnancy during the previous 6 months, lactating, or planned pregnancy in the next year
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Individual steps of muscle glucose uptake (pre-exercise)
Time Frame: 24 hours
Muscle glucose uptake will be assessed two times (pre and post exercise intervention) on the biceps femoris and vastus lateralis through PET imaging and hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp.
Individual steps of muscle glucose uptake (post-exercise)
Time Frame: 24 hours
Muscle glucose uptake will be assessed two times (pre and post exercise intervention) on the biceps femoris and vastus lateralis through PET imaging and hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp.
