HOme-Based Exercise for Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

The study aims to investigate whether 12 weeks of structured aerobic and resistance exercises completed at home can have a beneficial effect on the health of patients with type 2 diabetes compared to standard physical activity advice. The study will investigate whether the exercises can reduce factors such as patient's BMI, blood pressure and waist circumference, as well as blood glucose and insulin sensitivity. Participants will use pedometers and Therabands to carry out their exercises. This will be compared to giving participants a physical activity advice sheet and no structured exercise examples.
