the effect of resistance training on glycemic indexes of streptozotocin induced diabetic rats

introduction: aim of present research was to review the effect of resistance training on glycemic indexes of streptozotocin induced diabetic rats. methods: for this purpose 36 male rats with weight 308/82±29/57 selected. one week after induction of diabetes diabetic rats were randomly divided into two groups including resistance training and control and healthy rats divided in to two groups including resistance training and control. resistance training was 5 days per week for 6 weeks. for statistical analysis of data used one way anova and tukey post hoc test (p0/05). findings: findings showed that fasting glucose, insulin, hba1c and insulin resistance in diabetic resistance training were lower than diabetic control (p=0/001) also fasting glucose, insulin, hba1c and insulin resistance in healthy rats were lower than diabetic rats (p=0/001). conclusion: base on findings of present research six weeks resistance training has significant effect on glycemic indexes of diabetic rats.
