HIT in People With Type 1 Diabetes

Few people with type 1 diabetes achieve exercise guidelines and many programmes designed to increase physical activity have failed. High-intensity interval training (HIT) has been shown to be a time-efficient alternative to traditional moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) in various groups without type 1 diabetes. A single bout of HIT does not increase the risk of hypoglycaemia in people with type 1 diabetes. This study aimed to assess whether HIT a safe, effective and time-efficient training strategy to improve cardio-metabolic health and reduce the risk of hypoglycaemia in people with type 1 diabetes.
