Effect of strength training in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2Type 2 diabetes is achronic disease that causes the cells to be resistant to insulin, which can lead to a functional paralysis of the insulin secreting cells and this symptom affects 90-95% of all diabetes patients. To avoid an increase in the glycemic index, a consequence of the disease, special cares need to be taken such as regular exercise. The aim of the present study was to revise the current literature on the beneficial effects of strength training on type 2 diabetes patients. After the research, we concluded that strength training leads to increases in muscle mass and decreases in total body fat, which leads to increases sensibility to insulin and sugar metabolism in the organism, preventing increases in the glycemic levels.
