Researchers want to understand how exercise training affects the blood vessels in your heart and muscles, especially in people with type 2 diabetes. The study will compare people with type 2 diabetes to people without diabetes to see how exercise changes the way insulin works in your body and improves your heart and muscle function.
People with type 2 diabetes often have poor blood flow to their heart and muscles, which limits their ability to exercise and increases their risk of heart disease. Researchers believe exercise training might fix this problem, but they need to study exactly how it works.
