Interval Walking Improves Glycemic Control and Body Composition After Cancer Treatment: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Abstract Context Patients with colorectal cancer have increased risk of metabolic diseases including diabetes. Exercise training may counteract metabolic dysregulation, but the impact of exercise training on glycemic control, including postprandial glycemia, has never been explored in patients with...

Summary:Abstract Context Patients with colorectal cancer have increased risk of metabolic diseases including diabetes. Exercise training may counteract metabolic dysregulation, but the impact of exercise training on glycemic control, including postprandial glycemia, has never been explored in patients with colorectal cancer. Objective To examine the effects of home-based interval walking on aerobic and metabolic fitness and quality of life in patients with colorectal cancer. Design Randomized controlled trial. Setting Clinical research center. Participants Thirty-nine sedentary (
