초록

Medical treatment, dietetics, and exercise are being recognized as important means for treating diabetes and various effects of exercise in patients with diabetes are being reported but there is a lack of studies pertaining to walking exercises and their effects on diabetes patients. In this study, a walking exercise program (exercise intensity of 60% HR max, frequency of 4 sessions per week, duration of 60 minutes per session, for total of 16 weeks) was conducted with female patients with type 2 diabetes but with no complications, and the following conclusions were made. 1. Walking excercise decrease body weight by 5.24%, body fat by 3.7%, blood sugar by 56.0 mg/㎗, Glycosylated hemoglobin by 1.43%, and insulin by 2.64μIU/㎖ 2. Total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein, and neutral fat decreased significantly by 29mg/㎗, 29.1mg/㎗, and 27.6mg/㎗ respectively, and high density lipoprotein increased by 4.0mg/㎗. 3. Systolic blood pressure displayed significant decrease of 15.4mmHg. Therefore, maintaining blood sugar as close to the normal level as possible is the best way for preventing various complications due to diabetes and it is believed walking, which is economic and inexpensive is the safest and the most effected therapy for patients with type 2 diabetes.
