About
The increasing prevalence of type 2 diabetes and hypertension among the elderly poses a critical challenge to global health systems. While physical activity is a proven non-pharmacological intervention, the optimal combination of exercise frequency and intensity for this population remains uncertain. This randomized controlled trial aims to investigate the comparative effects of irregular low-intensity, regular moderate-intensity, and structured high-intensity exercise on blood pressure and glycemic control in elderly individuals with type 2 diabetes. The study will evaluate both physiological outcomes (systolic/diastolic blood pressure, HbA1c, fasting glucose) and adherence-related factors to identify the most effective and sustainable exercise strategy. Results are expected to contribute to evidence-based exercise recommendations for aging populations with metabolic disorders.
