This little known fact has a big improvement towards fighting Diabetes

Obesity related illnesses are set to surpass smoking as the number one cause of death in the United States.  The impact to individuals, families is heartbreaking, and medical costs and the financial burden associated with it are skyrocketing.

One of those Obesity related illnesses that you might be familiar with is diabetes.   Type 2 diabetes, the most common type of diabetes, is a disease that occurs when your blood glucose, also called blood sugar, is too high. Blood glucose is your main source of energy and comes mainly from the food you eat. Insulin, a hormone made by the pancreas, helps glucose get into your cells to be used for energy.

You may know someone who has died or has had to amputate a toe, a foot, a knee, a leg, or even an arm due to the effects of diabetes.    People with diabetes are prone to nerve damage and circulation issues that puts them at risk of lower limb loss. Diabetes is a significant cause of lower limb loss. According to the American Diabetes Association, worldwide, a person loses a limb due to diabetes-related complications every 30 seconds.  

The number of diabetes cases in the US has continued to climb. 

Conventional thought to combat diabetes often suggests that a healthy diet and cardio activities (running, walking) are the best form of exercise.  With the rise of cases, this is obviously not working.   What else could help?

A recent study put out by Bweir S, et al (Diabetol Metab Syndr. 2009), showed that Resistance exercise training improves blood markers (lowers HbA1c) more than aerobic training in adults with type 2 diabetes.  

When done correctly, resistance training is simply the best form of exercise. And because often adults with type 2 diabetes are carrying extra weight, it is really the only way that one can safely change their physiology to get back to who they want to be.  

To implement an effective resistance program, seek out a facility with a coach who can guide you and ensure you have the right form and are doing the right exercises.  Look for a place that can help you reach your body's optimal, safely.  The key is to be able to stimulate the muscle to the maximum it can do, and no more.   Steer clear of excessive repetitions.  And if you are a woman, don't worry, you won't bulk up, but instead, you'll see better muscle definition and have more energy.
