Breathing techniques with core exercises for type 2 diabetes

This trial is testing whether two different breathing approaches—diaphragmatic breathing (deep belly breathing) and Pilates breathing—combined with core strengthening exercises can help people with type 2 diabetes feel stronger and healthier. Researchers believe that weak core muscles and poor breathing may contribute to problems that people with diabetes face, and this study will compare which breathing style works better when combined with exercise.

People with type 2 diabetes often experience muscle weakness and reduced physical ability, which affects their daily life and overall health. This study explores whether combining targeted breathing techniques with core exercises could improve strength, lung function, and quality of life in a way that standard diabetes care alone does not.
