Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The primary outcome will be glycaemic control as done through the analysis of composite measures that include: glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c),fasting glucose and 1,5-anhydroglucitol (1,5-AG) levels. Blood samples will be sent to an external provider (Western Diagnostic) for the analysis of HbA1c and 1,5-AG. Additionally,blood samples will be analysed in-house using a COBAS 6000 chemistry analyzer for fasting glucose levels.[Glycosylated haemoglobin, fasting glucose and 1,5-AG levels will be done prior to the start of the 12-week training intervention during baseline assessment (study day) and at least 24 hours after the last training session in week 12, but no more than 96 hours after the last training session (post-intervention study day). In addition, fasting glucose and 1,5-AG levels will be done during the mid-intervention assessments which will occur in week 6.]
