Brief Summary

To analyze the effects of a Pilates exercise program on physical and mental health in people with type II diabetes mellitus.

Detailed Description

This is a randomized clinical trial of single-blind with 2 arms (Control group and experimental group), in which a pre-treatment-postest design has been used.

The study will define two groups:

* A control group (CG) that will not be submitted to treatment, which will be evaluated in the pre and post phase of the study. Participants assigned to this group will receive general advice on the positive effects of regular physical activity and will be given a guide to recommendations for promoting physical activity.

* An experimental group (GE) that after an initial evaluation will undergo a physical training program based on Pilates exercises.

Once the intervention is finished, it will be submitted to a final evaluation to see if there is a difference or not with the results obtained at the beginning.

Capillary blood glucose monitoring is the primary tool for monitoring blood glucose levels at any time of day. It involves a small fingertip prick to check blood sugar levels at a specific time of day. This procedure requires a pen containing a fine needle or lancet, test strips, and a glucose meter (glucometer). Reference values vary depending on the time of sample collection: preprandial 80-130 mg/dL and postprandial \<180 mg/dL. In Spain, this measurement is performed among older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
