Principles of exercise therapy for diabetes What exercise is suitable for diabetes?
1 Aerobic exercise is the main exercise for diabetes. Diabetic patients must choose exercise programs according to specific conditions, including gender, age, weight, normal activity, diabetes type, course of disease, blood sugar control level, diet and drug treatment. According to the above situation, we can choose suitable, systematic and rhythmic sports. Diabetic patients are more suitable for aerobic exercise, including walking, running, cycling, swimming, dancing, aerobics, playing Tai Ji Chuan and some low-intensity but long-lasting exercises. These sports play an important role in treating chronic diseases.

The benefits of aerobic exercise in patients with diabetes mellitus increase the circulating blood volume of the human body. Oxygen is supplied by blood to all parts of the human body, and the increase of blood volume correspondingly increases the delivery capacity of oxygen. At the same time, the increase of the total circulating blood will reduce the blood sugar concentration accordingly.

When aerobic exercise is carried out to enhance lung function, breathing is deepened and accelerated, thus improving the gas exchange capacity and oxygen absorption capacity of the lungs, which is beneficial to protecting the lungs and preventing pulmonary complications of diabetic patients.

After oxygen is inhaled into the lungs, it needs to be pumped out by the heart and transported to the whole body with the blood. Aerobic metabolic exercise makes the heart muscle strong, so that more blood is discharged at a time, and the proportion of high-density lipoprotein in the blood that can prevent coronary heart disease can be increased. Sticking to regular aerobic exercise will reduce the incidence of heart disease.

Reducing obesity in fatty diabetes will increase the possibility of occurrence and development of complications such as coronary heart disease and hypertension. Aerobic exercise combined with proper diet control is beneficial to control diabetes, such as brisk walking twice a day for 20 minutes each time, which will have obvious effects on controlling and preventing obesity-related diseases in obese diabetic patients.

People who lower blood sugar need to consume blood sugar during exercise, so that more glucose in the blood can be delivered to all tissues, which is beneficial to lowering blood sugar, but hypoglycemia will not occur, because aerobic exercise intensity is suitable, the body can bear it, and blood delivery is stable and moderate.

3 Control the time of each exercise Generally speaking, the exercise time of diabetes should not be too long. First, physical exhaustion, but prone to hypoglycemia. Exercise time can be controlled within 0.5- 1 hour according to the amount of exercise and physical condition, and should be carried out from half an hour after dinner to 1 hour, which is the time when blood sugar is high. At this time, exercise helps to consume sugar, and sleeping after exercise is beneficial to sleep and can prevent obesity.

4 Requirements of diabetic patients for exercise times Generally speaking, it is advisable to exercise 3 times a week, and less than 3 times can not achieve the exercise effect. If you are in good health, you can exercise five times a week or even every day, and the effect will be more rational.
