Abstract
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is the presence of symptoms and/or signs of peripheral nerve dysfunction in people with diabetes after the exclusion of other causes. It is associated with pain, paresthesia, sensory loss, muscle atrophy with fat infiltration, and muscular dysfunction typically starting distally in the feet and progressing proximally. Muscle deterioration within the leg and foot can lead to muscle dysfunction, reduced mobility, and increases the risk of disability, ulceration, and amputation. Exercise training is an established method for increasing the different components of physical fitness, including enhancing body composition and improving neuromuscular strength. A number of experimental studies have utilized exercise training to treat various impairments associated with DPN, such as nerve conduction velocity, pain tolerance, and balance. However, the broad spectrum of exercise training modalities implemented and differences in target outcome measurements have made it difficult to understand the efficacy of exercise training interventions or provide appropriate exercise prescription recommendations. Therefore, the aims of this review were to (1) briefly describe the pathophysiology of DPN and (2) discuss the effects of exercise training interventions on sensorimotor, metabolic, and physical functions in people with DPN.

Abstract
The purpose of the work is to investigate the effects of low-dose testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) and evoked resistance training (RT) on body composition and metabolic variables after spinal cord injury (SCI). Twenty-two individuals with chronic motor complete SCI (ages 18-50 years) were randomly assigned to either TRT+RT (n = 11) or TRT (n = 11) for 16 weeks following a 4 -week delayed entry period. TRT+RT men underwent twice weekly progressive RT using electrical stimulation with ankle weights. TRT was administered via testosterone patches (2-6 mg/day). Body composition was tested using anthropometrics, dual energy x-ray absorptiometry, and magnetic resonance imaging. After an overnight fast, basal metabolic rate (BMR), lipid panel, serum testosterone, adiponectin, inflammatory and anabolic biomarkers (insulin-like growth factor-1 and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 3 [IGFBP-3]), glucose effectiveness (Sg), and insulin sensitivity (Si) were measured. Total body lean mass (LM; 2.7 kg, p < 0.0001), whole muscle (p < 0.0001), and whole muscle knee extensor cross-sectional areas (CSAs; p < 0.0001) increased in the TRT+RT group, with no changes in the TRT group. Visceral adiposity decreased (p = 0.049) in the TRT group, with a trend in the TRT+RT (p = 0.07) group. There was a trend (p = 0.050) of a 14-17% increase in BMR following TRT+RT. Sg showed a trend (p = 0.07) to improvement by 28.5-31.5% following both interventions. IGFBP-3 increased (p = 0.0001) while IL-6 decreased (p = 0.039) following both interventions, and TRT+RT suppressed adiponectin (p = 0.024). TRT+RT resulted in an increase in LM and whole thigh and knee extensor muscle CSAs, with an increase in BMR and suppressed adiponectin. Low-dose TRT may mediate modest effects on visceral adipose tissue, Sg, IGFBP-3, and IL-6, independent of changes in LM.

Mcleod JC, Stokes T, Phillips SM. Resistance Exercise Training as a Primary Countermeasure to Age-Related Chronic Disease. Front Physiol 2019; 10:645. [PMID: 31244666 PMCID: PMC6563593 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2019.00645] [Citation(s) in RCA: 130] [Impact Index Per Article: 26.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2018] [Accepted: 05/07/2019] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Age is a primary risk factor for a number of chronic diseases including mobility disability, cardiovascular disease (CVD), type 2 diabetes (T2D), and cancer. Most physical activity guidelines emphasize the performance of 150 min of moderate-to-vigorous or 75 min of vigorous aerobic exercise training (AET) weekly for reduction of chronic disease risk. Nonetheless, there is an emerging body of evidence showing that resistance exercise training (RET) appears to be as effective as AET in reducing risk of several chronic diseases. It may also be that RET is more effective than AET in some regards; the converse is likely also true. We posit that the perceived divergent exercise mode-dependent health benefits of AET and RET are likely small in most cases. In this short review, our aim is to examine evidence of associations between the performance of RET and chronic health disease risk (mobility disability, T2D, CVD, cancer). We also postulate on how RET may be influencing chronic disease risk and how it is a critical component for healthy aging. Accumulating evidence points to RET as a potent and robust preventive strategy against a number of chronic diseases traditionally associated with the performance of AET, but evidence favors RET as a potent countermeasure against declines in mobility. On the basis of this review we propose that the promotion of RET should assume a more prominent position in exercise guidelines particularly for older persons.

Abstract
This protocol describes the simultaneous use of a broad span of methods to examine muscle aerobic capacity, glucose tolerance, strength, and power in elderly people performing short-term resistance training (RET). Supervised progressive resistance training for 1 h three times a week over 8 weeks was performed by RET participants (71±1 years, range 65-80). Compared to a control group without training, the RET showed improvements on the measures used to indicate strength, power, glucose tolerance, and several parameters of muscle aerobic capacity. Strength training was performed in a gym with only robust fitness equipment. An isokinetic dynamometer for knee extensor strength permitted the measurement of concentric, eccentric, and static strength, which increased for the RET group (8-12% post- versus pre-test). The power (rate of force development, RFD) at the initial 0-30 ms also showed an increase for the RET group (52%). A glucose tolerance test with frequent blood glucose measurements showed improvements only for the RET group in terms of blood glucose values after 2 h (14%) and the area under the curve (21%). The blood lipid profile also improved (8%). From muscle biopsy samples prepared using histochemistry, the amount of fiber type IIa increased, and a trend towards a decrease in IIx in the RET group reflected a change to a more oxidative profile in terms of fiber composition. Western blot (to determine the protein content related to the signaling for muscle protein synthesis) showed a rise of 69% in both Akt and mTOR in the RET group; this also showed an increase in mitochondrial proteins for OXPHOS complex II and citrate synthase (both ~30%) and for complex IV (90%), in only the RET group. We demonstrate that this type of progressive resistance training offers various improvements (e.g., strength, power, aerobic capacity, glucose tolerance, and plasma lipid profile).

Abstract
In older previously sedentary individuals endurance training imposes a more effective stimulus to enhance cardiometabolic health compared with resistance or sprint training. We examined the effect of replacing a portion of endurance training with combined resistance and/or sprint training and how this influences cardiometabolic health indicators in masters endurance cyclists. Twenty-seven well-trained male road cyclists (53.7±8.2 years) were allocated to a resistance and track sprint-cycling training group (RTC, n=10), an endurance and track sprint-cycling group (ETC, n=7) or a control endurance group (CTRL, n=10). Both the RTC and ETC groups completed a 12-week intervention of specific training while the CTRL group maintained their endurance training load. Lower limb lean mass (LLM), trunk fat mass (TFM), fasting blood glucose (FBG), total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), systolic blood pressure (SBP), and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were measured before and after the intervention period. TFM decreased for all groups (P<0.05) while LLM significantly increased for RTC and ETC groups (P<0.05). No significant between group or time effects were observed for FBG, TC, TG, SBP, or DBP. The results suggest that replacing a portion of endurance training with 12 weeks of ETC or RTC training favourably affects body composition by lowering TFM and increasing LLM without negatively affecting cardiometabolic health indicators in well-trained masters endurance cyclists.

Abstract
The primary aim of this study was to investigate the effect of short-term resistance training (RET) on mitochondrial protein content and glucose tolerance in elderly. Elderly women and men (age 71 ± 1, mean ± SEM) were assigned to a group performing 8 weeks of resistance training (RET, n = 12) or no training (CON, n = 9). The RET group increased in (i) knee extensor strength (concentric +11 ± 3%, eccentric +8 ± 3% and static +12 ± 3%), (ii) initial (0-30 ms) rate of force development (+52 ± 26%) and (iii) contents of proteins related to signaling of muscle protein synthesis (Akt +69 ± 20 and mammalian target of rapamycin +69 ± 32%). Muscle fiber type composition changed to a more oxidative profile in RET with increased amount of type IIa fibers (+26.9 ± 6.8%) and a trend for decreased amount of type IIx fibers (-16.4 ± 18.2%, P = 0.068). Mitochondrial proteins (OXPHOS complex II, IV, and citrate synthase) increased in RET by +30 ± 11%, +99 ± 31% and +29 ± 8%, respectively. RET resulted in improved oral glucose tolerance measured as reduced area under curve for glucose (-21 ± 26%) and reduced plasma glucose 2 h post-glucose intake (-14 ± 5%). In CON parameters were unchanged or impaired. In conclusion, short-term resistance training in elderly not only improves muscular strength, but results in robust increases in several parameters related to muscle aerobic capacity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recently some plasma biomarkers of inflammation have been recognized as important cardiovascular risk factors. There is little information about the effects of aerobic exercise training on these biomarkers and the risk of metabolic complications in obese type 2 diabetes patients. OBJECTIVE To compare the impact of moderate versus mild aerobic exercise training on the inflammatory cytokines in obese type 2 diabetic patients. METHODS Fifty obese type 2 diabetic patients of both sexes with body mass index (BMI) varying from 31 to 36 kg/m(2), non smokers, free from respiratory, kidney, liver, metabolic and neurological disorders, participated in this study. Their age ranged from 40 to 55 years. The subjects were included into two equal groups; the first group (A) received moderate aerobic exercise training. The second group (B) received mild aerobic exercise training, three times / week for 3 months. RESULTS The mean values of leptin, TNF- alpha, IL2, IL4, IL6, HOMA-IR and HBA1c were significantly decreased in group (A) and group (B). Also, there were significant differences between both groups after treatment. CONCLUSION Moderate aerobic exercise training modulates inflammatory cytokines more than mild aerobic exercise training in obese type 2 diabetic patients.

Abstract
Metabolic syndrome (MS) is a collection of cardiometabolic risk factors that includes obesity, insulin resistance, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. Although there has been significant debate regarding the criteria and concept of the syndrome, this clustering of risk factors is unequivocally linked to an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Regardless of the true definition, based on current population estimates, nearly 100 million have MS. It is often characterized by insulin resistance, which some have suggested is a major underpinning link between physical inactivity and MS. The purpose of this review is to: (i) provide an overview of the history, causes and clinical aspects of MS, (ii) review the molecular mechanisms of insulin action and the causes of insulin resistance, and (iii) discuss the epidemiological and intervention data on the effects of exercise on MS and insulin sensitivity.

Growth hormone plus resistance exercise attenuate structural changes in rat myotendinous junctions resulting from chronic unloading. Eur J Histochem 2013; 57:e37.

Abstract
Myotendinous junctions (MTJs) are specialized sites on the muscle surface where forces generated by myofibrils are transmitted across the sarcolemma to the extracellular matrix. At the ultrastructural level, the interface between the sarcolemma and extracellular matrix is highly folded and interdigitated at these junctions. In this study, the effect of exercise and growth hormone (GH) treatments on the changes in MTJ structure that occur during muscle unloading, has been analyzed. Twenty hypophysectomized rats were assigned randomly to one of five groups: ambulatory control, hindlimb unloaded, hindlimb unloaded plus exercise (3 daily bouts of 10 climbs up a ladder with 50% body wt attached to the tail), hindlimb unloaded plus GH (2 daily injections of 1 mg/kg body wt, i.p.), and hindlimb unloaded plus exercise plus GH. MTJs of the plantaris muscle were analyzed by electron microscopy and the contact between muscle and tendon was evaluated using an IL/B ratio, where B is the base and IL is the interface length of MTJ's digit-like processes. After 10 days of unloading, the mean IL/B ratio was significantly lower in unloaded (3.92), unloaded plus exercise (4.18), and unloaded plus GH (5.25) groups than in the ambulatory control (6.39) group. On the opposite, the mean IL/B ratio in the group treated with both exercise and GH (7.3) was similar to control. These findings indicate that the interaction between exercise and GH treatments attenuates the changes in MTJ structure that result from chronic unloading and thus can be used as a countermeasure to these adaptations.

Abstract
Background Exercise training programs have emerged as a useful therapeutic regimen for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Majority of the Western studies highlighted the effective role of exercise in T2DM. Therefore, the main aim was to focus on the extent, type of exercise and its clinical significance in T2DM in order to educate the clinicians from developing countries, especially in Asians. Methods Pubmed, Science Direct, Scopus, ISI Web of Knowledge and Google scholar were searched using the terms “type 2 diabetes mellitus,” “type 2 DM,” “exercise,” and/or “physical activity,” and “type 2 diabetes mellitus with exercise.” Only clinical or human studies published in English language between 2000 and 2012 were included. Certain criteria were assigned to achieve appropriate results. Results Twenty five studies met the selected criteria. The majority of the studies were randomized controlled trial study design (65%). Most of the aerobic exercise based studies showed a beneficial effect in T2DM. Resistance exercise also proved to have positive effect on T2DM patients. Minimal studies related to other types of exercises such as yoga classes, joba riding and endurance-type exercise were found. On the other hand, United States of America (USA) showed strong interest of exercise management towards T2DM. Conclusion Aerobic exercise is more common in clinical practice compared to resistance exercise in managing T2DM. Treatment of T2DM with exercise training showed promising role in USA. A large number of researches are mandatory in the developing countries for incorporating exercise in the effective management of T2DM.

Abstract
We examined the effects of RT on oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT)-derived indices of muscle insulin sensitivity, hepatic insulin resistance, β-cell function, and skeletal muscle proteins related to glucose transport in overweight/obese, sedentary young men. Twenty-eight participants [median body mass index (BMI) 30.9 kg/m(2); age 22 yr] completed 12 wk of RT (3 sessions/wk) and were assessed for changes in OGTT-derived indices, resting metabolic rate, body composition, serum adipokines, and skeletal muscle protein content [hexokinase 2 (HK2), glucose transporter type 4 (GLUT4), RAC-β serine/threonine-protein kinase (AKT2), glycogen synthase kinase 3β, and insulin receptor substrate 1]. Individualized responses to RT were also evaluated. RT significantly improved insulin and glucose area under the curve (both P < 0.03). With the use of OGTT indices of insulin action, we noted improved muscle insulin sensitivity index (mISI; P = 0.03) and oral disposition index (P = 0.03). BMI, lean body mass (LBM), and relative strength also increased (all P < 0.03), as did skeletal muscle protein content of HK2, GLUT4, and AKT2 (26-33%; all P < 0.02). Hepatic insulin resistance index, adiponectin, leptin, and total amylin did not change. Further analysis demonstrated the presence of highly individualized responsiveness to RT for glucose tolerance and other outcomes. RT improved oral indices of muscle insulin sensitivity and β-cell function but not hepatic insulin resistance in overweight/obese young men. In addition to the increase in LBM, the improvements in insulin action may be due, in part, to increases in key insulin signaling proteins.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Evidence suggests that SHBG affects glycemic control, predicts both T2D and metabolic syndrome, and is low in obese subjects. We sought to determine if resistance exercise training (RT) can increase sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) and ameliorate levels of related steroid hormones in overweight/obese, sedentary young men. MATERIALS/METHODS 36 participants (BMI 31.4 kg/m(2), age 22 years) were randomized into an RT (12 weeks of training, 3/week) or control group (C, 12 weeks no training), and assessed for changes in SHBG, cortisol, testosterone, free testosterone (FT) and free androgen index (FAI). In addition, body composition and oral glucose tolerance testing was performed. RESULTS 12 weeks of RT increased SHBG (P=0.01) and decreased FAI (P<0.05) and cortisol (P<0.05) compared to C. FT decreased in RT (P=0.01). Total testosterone did not change in either group. These changes were noted without weight loss, and in concert with increases in lean body mass (P=0.0002 vs C) and decreases in glucose area under the curve (AUC) (P=0.004), insulin AUC (P=0.03), and total (P=0.002) and trunk (P=0.003) fat mass in RT. CONCLUSION In overweight/obese young men, RT increases SHBG and lowers FAI in obese young adult men.

Abstract
With the aging of the baby-boom generation and increases in life expectancy, the American population is growing older. Aging is associated with adverse changes in glucose tolerance and increased risk of diabetes; the increasing prevalence of diabetes among older adults suggests a clear need for effective diabetes prevention approaches for this population. The purpose of paper is to review what is known about changes in glucose tolerance with advancing age and the potential utility of resistance training (RT) as an intervention to prevent diabetes among middle-aged and older adults. Age-related factors contributing to glucose intolerance, which may be improved with RT, include improvements in insulin signaling defects, reductions in tumor necrosis factor-α, increases in adiponectin and insulin-like growth factor-1 concentrations, and reductions in total and abdominal visceral fat. Current RT recommendations and future areas for investigation are presented.

Abstract
Exercise is part of a healthy lifestyle and frequently is an important component in combating chronic diseases, such as obesity and diabetes. Understanding the molecular events initiated by regular exercise is best studied in laboratory animals, with mice and rats being favoured for a number of reasons. However, the wide variety of rodent strains available for biomedical research often makes it challenging to select an animal strain suitable for studying specific disease outcomes. In the present review we focus on exercise as a management strategy for obesity and diabetes and we discuss: (i) exercise paradigms in humans shown to ameliorate signs and symptoms of obesity and diabetes; (ii) different rodent strains in terms of their advantages, disadvantages and limitations when using specific forms of exercise; (iii) the strengths and weaknesses of commonly used laboratory methods for rodent exercise; and (iv) the unintended consequences of exercise that are often manifested by increased hormonal and oxidative stress responses.

Abstract
High-intensity (HI) resistance exercise augments postexercise glucose uptake to a greater degree than low-intensity (LO) resistance exercise; however, few studies have equated the work volumes between intensity levels. The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of acute HI and LO resistance exercise of equal work volume on glucose uptake in resistant-trained men. Fifteen healthy male (22.9 +/- 3.8 years old), resistance-trained (6.7 +/- 3.9 years) subjects completed three treatment sessions: CON (no-exercise control), HI (3 x 8, 85% 10-RM), and LO (3 x 15, 45% 10-RM). HI and LO sessions consisted of eight exercises. Glucose uptake was measured the following morning by using the hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp technique. Glucose disposal was measured by analyzing the glucose infusion rate during the final 30 minutes of steady-state blood glucose concentrations. Insulin sensitivity was calculated by dividing the glucose infusion rate by the average insulin infusion. Results indicate that fasting blood glucose levels were not significantly different among treatment sessions (CON = 80.5 +/- 5.3 versus HI = 77.0 +/- 4.9 versus LO = 77.1 +/- 6.0 mg.dL). Glucose uptake was not significantly different among treatment sessions (CON = 11.3 +/- 3.0 versus HI = 11.7 +/- 2.7 versus LO = 11.4 +/- 2.8 mg.kg FFM.min). Insulin sensitivity did not change among treatment sessions (CON = 0.26 +/- 0.09 versus HI = 0.28 +/- 0.07 versus LO = 0.27 +/- 0.06 (mg.kg FFM.min)/(uU.mL)). The data indicate that the resistance training sessions did not modify acute insulin sensitivity. This may have been because of the high levels of fitness of the subjects, which allowed for the cellular adaptations for enhanced insulin sensitivity and glucose uptake that are unaffected by this volume of acute exercise.

Abstract
Measuring insulin sensitivity in the presence of physiological changes in glucose and insulin concentrations, e.g., during a meal or OGTT, is important to better understand insulin resistance in a variety of metabolic conditions. Recently, two oral minimal models have been proposed to measure overall insulin sensitivity (S(I)) and its selective effect on glucose disposal (S(I)*) from oral tests. S(I) and S(I)* have been successfully validated against multiple tracer meal estimates, but validation against euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp estimates is lacking. Here, we do so in 21 subjects who underwent both a multiple-tracer OGTT and a labeled euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp. Correlation between minimal-model S(I), S(I) and corresponding clamp estimates S(I)(*clamp), S(I)(*clamp) was satisfactory, respectively r = 0.81, P < 0.001, and r = 0.71, P < 0.001. S(I) was significantly lower than S(I)(clamp) (8.08 +/- 0.89 vs. 13.66 +/- 1.69 10(-4) dl.kg(-1).min(-1) per microU/ml, P = 0.0002), whereas S(I) and S(I)(*clamp) were very similar (8.17 +/- 1.59 vs. 8.84 +/- 1.39 10(-4) dl.kg(-1).min(-1) per microU/ml, P = 0.52). These results add credibility to the oral minimal-model method as a simple and reliable physiological tool to estimate S(I) and S(I)*, also in large-scale clinical trials.

Abstract
The aims of the present study were to determine whether available "fasting" and oral glucose tolerance test-derived insulin sensitivity indices could effectively discriminate between individuals with higher than normal insulin sensitivity, and whether they would all provide similar information in clinical practice. Sprint runners (n = 8), endurance runners (n = 8) and sedentary controls (n = 7) received a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test. All participants were healthy lean males, aged 21-29 years. Besides glucose and insulin responses, a total of nine such indices were computed. Fasting as well as post-load glucose concentrations were similar in the three groups, while basal plasma insulin and the insulinaemic response to glucose were both higher in untrained individuals (at P < 0.05 and P < 0.02, respectively). There were no differences between endurance and sprint runners. The results for insulin sensitivity, however, were quite variable: three indices showed that both groups of athletes were more insulin-sensitive than controls; three indicated that this was the case for endurance runners only; one indicated that this was the case for sprint runners only; and two showed that sprint runners were more insulin-sensitive than either sedentary individuals or endurance runners (all differences were significant at P < 0.05). Controlling for total body weight or lean mass did not effectively resolve this disagreement. Apparently, the various insulin sensitivity indices examined provided different quantitative and qualitative information, despite insulin action being greater in both groups of athletes relative to controls, as reflected by their similar glucose tolerance with lower insulin concentrations. We suggest, therefore, that the use and interpretation of such indices among physically active individuals be made with caution.

Abstract
It is unclear whether long-term aerobic (AT) or resistance (RT) training can improve insulin sensitivity (IS) beyond the residual effect of the last training bout in older women (54–78 years). Therefore, a group of nonobese, healthy older women underwent 6 months of AT (n= 8) or RT (n= 10), and the authors measured IS 4 days after the last training bouts using the hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp technique. Women trained 3 days/week. AT consisted of 25- to 60-min sessions of walking/jogging at 60–95% of maximal heart rate. RT consisted of three sets of nine exercises repeated 10 times at 80% of 1 repetition maximum. AT decreased fat mass, whereas both AT and RT increased fat-free mass. Neither training program, however, improved absolute or relative rates of glucose disposal. The authors therefore concluded that nonobese, healthy older women should perform AT or RT on a daily basis in order to improve IS and maintain the improvement.

Abstract
There is increasing evidence that the black box we have referred to as"biologic aging" is composed of genetic factors and many types of environmental exposures. Some of the most potentially modifiable elements of this syndrome are those attributable to disuse or insufficient exposure to certain kinds or intensities of physical stressors during the course of the life span. Beneficial adaptations to exercise once thought restricted to genetically endowed master athletes now are seen to occur just as predictably in frail elders with chronic disease, opening the door to vastly improved physical function and associated health benefits. Knowledge of the benefits of physical activity, however well substantiated, may be necessary, but it is not sufficient to change either physician-prescribing habits or the likelihood of adoption and long-term adherence to exercise on the part of patients. Ultimately, the penetration of an exercise prescription to optimize aging into the most inactive cohorts in the community,who have the most to gain from increases in levels of physical activity and fitness, will depend on a combination of clear evidence-based guidelines coupled with health professional training and behavioral programs tailored to age-specific barriers and motivational factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine whether exercise training in combination with metformin improves cardiovascular risk indices and insulin in comparison to metformin alone among HIV-infected patients. METHODS AND DESIGN We conducted a prospective, randomized, 3-month study of HIV patients on stable antiretroviral therapy with hyperinsulinemia and fat redistribution. Subjects received metformin alone or metformin and exercise training consisting of 1 h of aerobic and resistance training three times a week. Cardiovascular parameters, including blood pressure and endurance during sub-maximal stress testing, body composition, strength, insulin and other biochemical parameters were determined. RESULTS Thirty-seven patients were randomized and 25 subjects completed the study. Subjects receiving exercise training and metformin demonstrated significant decreases in median waist-to-hip ratio [-0.02 (-0.06, -0.01) (median (interquartile range) versus -0.01 (0.03, 0.02), P = 0.026], resting systolic [-12 (-20, -4) versus 0 (-11, 11), P = 0.012] and diastolic blood pressures [-10 (-14, -8) versus 0 (-7, 8), P = 0.001], increased thigh muscle cross-sectional area [3 (-3, 12) versus -7 (-11, 0), P = 0.015], and improved exercise time [3 (0, 4) versus 0 (-1, 1), P = 0.045] compared with subjects receiving metformin alone. Fasting insulin and insulin area under the curve decreased significantly more in the exercise and metformin group (P < 0.05). Lipids and resting lactate did not change significantly between treatment groups. CONCLUSIONS These data demonstrate that exercise training in combination with metformin significantly improves cardiovascular and biochemical parameters more than metformin alone in HIV-infected patients with fat redistribution and hyperinsulinemia. Combined treatment was safe, well tolerated and may be a useful strategy to decrease cardiovascular risk in this population.

Abstract
Aerobic endurance training increases insulin action in skeletal muscle, but the effect of resistance training has not been well described. Controversy exists about whether the effect of resistance training is merely due to an increase in muscle mass. We studied the effect of cessation of resistance training in young, healthy subjects by taking muscle biopsies and measuring insulin-mediated whole body and leg glucose uptake rates after 90 days of heavy resistance training (T) and again after 90 days of de-training (dT). Data on leg glucose uptake were expressed relative to accurate measures of leg muscle mass by MRI scanning. Muscle strength (239 +/- 43 vs. 208 +/- 33 N m), quadriceps area (8463 +/- 453 vs. 7763 +/- 329 mm2) and glycogen content (458 +/- 22 vs. 400 +/- 26 mmol (kg dry weight muscle)(-1)) decreased, while myosin heavy chain isoform IIX increased 4-fold in dT vs. T, respectively (all P < 0.05). GLUT4 mRNA levels and enzyme activities and mRNA levels of glycolytic, lipolytic and glyconeogenic enzymes did not change with de-training. Likewise, capillary density did not change. Whole body glucose uptake decreased 11 % and leg glucose uptake decreased from 75 +/- 11 (T) to 50 +/- 6 (dT) nmol min(-1) (mm muscle)(-2) (P < 0.05) at maximal insulin, the latter decrease being due to decreased arterio-femoral venous glucose extraction. The decrease was mainly due to reduced non-oxidative glucose disposal. We have thus shown that 90 days after the termination of heavy resistance training, insulin-mediated glucose uptake rates per unit of skeletal muscle have decreased significantly.

Abstract
Ageing is associated with changes in body composition, including an increase and redistribution of adipose tissue and a decrease in muscle and bone mass, beginning as early as the fourth decade of life. These changes have significant implications for the health and functioning of the individual because of their associations with chronic disease expression and severity, as well as geriatric syndromes such as mobility impairment, falls, frailty and functional decline. Therefore, understanding the preventive and therapeutic options for optimizing body composition in old age is central to the care of patients in mid-life and beyond. Pharmacological interventions are currently available for maintaining or improving bone mass, and much current interest is focused on anabolic agents that will preserve or restore muscle mass, as well as those that can potentially limit adipose tissue deposition. However, in this brief review, non-pharmacological modulation of body composition through appropriate dietary intake and physical activity patterns, will be discussed. There is sufficient evidence currently to suggest that a substantial portion of what have been considered 'age-related' changes in muscle, fat and bone are in fact related either to excess energy consumption, decreased energy expenditure in physical activity, or both factors in combination. In addition, selective underconsumption of certain macro- or micronutrients contributes to losses of muscle and bone mass. Each of the three compartments will be considered in turn, with recommendations for optimizing the size of these body tissue stores in early adulthood, and minimizing undesirable changes typically seen in middle and old age.

Abstract
Weight lifting, or resistance training, is a potent stimulus to the neuromuscular system. Depending on the specific program design, resistance training can enhance strength, power, or local muscular endurance. These improvements in performance are directly related to the physiologic adaptations elicited through prolonged resistance training. Optimal resistance training programs are individualized to meet specific training goals. When trained properly (i.e., similar intensity and volume), these functional and physiologic adaptations are similarly impressive among women and the aged as they are among young men. Yet, in contrast to relative measurements, sex and age differences exist in the absolute magnitude of adaptation. Of equal importance, perhaps most notably among the elderly, are the important health benefits that may also be derived from resistance training. For example, bone density, insulin sensitivity, and co-morbidities associated with obesity can be effectively managed with resistance exercise when it is conducted on a regular basis. The extent of the functional and health benefits to be accrued from resistance training depend on factors such as initial performance and health status, along with the specification of program design variables such as frequency, duration, intensity, volume, and rest intervals.

Abstract
There are myriad ways in which optimal levels of physical activity over the course of the life span could potentially contribute to the prevention of functional disability in old age. These include direct effects of exercise to maximize physiologic capacity and prevent or delay the onset of disability-related conditions and more indirect effects, such as the modulation of psychosocial factors important in the expression of disability. Epidemiologic studies strongly suggest that functional disability is inversely related to physical activity level or physical fitness in various domains. Experimental studies confirm the benefits of exercise on correlates of disability, such as impairments of muscle strength or performance-based tests of functional limitations. However, the evidence that exercise can actually prevent disability in the long-term is not yet established by data from randomized clinical trials in the general population. Secondary prevention of disability in frail elders has been shown in a few trials. The available evidence, however, suggests that a rational exercise prescription for the prevention and treatment of disability at this time should include promotion of a physically active lifestyle and specific exercises targeting aerobic capacity, strength, and balance. Differential emphasis on specific elements of this prescription may be necessary and appropriate, depending on the etiology of the disability in specific cohorts, severity of physical impairments and functional limitations, and other individual characteristics relevant to exercise feasibility, safety, and efficacy.

The aim of this study was to examine the independent effect of high lean mass on glucose metabolism, as well as its consequences on the classic relationship between BMI and insulin sensitivity (SI) in 3 groups: 1) 8 strength-trained males with BMI >27 kg/m2 (athletes); 2) 10 sedentary males with BMI >27 kg/m2 (obese); and 3) 12 sedentary males with BMI 22-25 kg/m2 (control). Body composition was measured with impedance analysis. Iv glucose tolerance test was performed at 09:00 h after overnight fast. Estimation of insulin sensitivity and glucose effectiveness by Minimal Model Approach. Plasma glucose and insulin determination by glucose-oxidase and RIA respectively. BMI and lean mass (LM) were greater in athletes than in controls, but there were no differences in fat mass (FM), basal glucose (Gb), basal insulin (Ib), glucose tolerance (Kg), SI, glucose effectiveness (Sg), acute insulin response to glucose (AIRG) and leptin. Obese showed greater FM, leptin, lb and AIRG than athletes, while SI was lower; BMI, LM, Gb, Kg and Sg were similar. BMI, FM, LM, Ib, AIRG and leptin were lower in controls than in obese, while SI index was greater; Gb, Sg and Kg were similar. We found that: 1) Resistance exercise does not modify glucose effectiveness, but can improve insulin sensitivity through FM reduction (LM augmentation alone has no effect on glucose metabolism); and 2) High BMI causes insulin resistance only if it depends on adipose tissue hypertrophy.

Abstract
We investigated the effect of an 8 week circuit training (CT) program, combining aerobic and resistance exercise, on indices of glycemic control, cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular strength and body composition in 16 subjects (age 52 +/- 2 years) with type 2 diabetes using a prospective randomised crossover protocol. Submaximal exercise heart rate and rate pressure product were significantly lower after training (P<0.05), whilst ventilatory threshold increased (11.8 +/- 0.7 vs 13.8 +/- 0.6 ml kg(-1)min(-1), P<0.001). Muscular strength also increased with training (403 +/- 30 to 456 +/- 31 kg, P<0.001), whilst skinfolds (148.7 +/- 11.5 vs 141.1 +/- 10.7 mm, P<0.05), % body fat (29.5 +/- 1.0 vs 28.7 +/- 1.1%, P<0.05) and waist:hip ratio (99.2 +/- 1.5 vs 97.9 +/- 1.4%, P<0.05) significantly decreased. Concurrently, peak oxygen uptake (P<0.05) and exercise test duration (P<0.001) increased following training, whilst glycated hemoglobin (P<0.05) and fasting blood glucose (P<0.05) decreased. CT is an effective method of training that improved functional capacity, lean body mass, strength and glycemic control in subjects with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to determine whether age, sex, or angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) genotype influences the effects of strength training (ST) on glucose homeostasis. Nineteen sedentary young (age = 20-30 yr) men (n = 10) and women (n = 9) were studied and compared with 21 sedentary older (age = 65-75 yr) men (n = 12) and women (n = 9) before and after a 6-mo total body ST program. Fasting insulin concentrations were reduced in young men and in older men with ST (P < 0.05 in both). In addition, total insulin area under the curve decreased by 21% in young men (P < 0.05), and there was a trend for a decrease (11%) in older men (P = 0.06). No improvements in insulin responses were observed in young or older women. The ACE deletion/deletion genotype group had the lowest fasting insulin and insulin areas under the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) curve before training (all P < 0.05), but those with at least one insertion allele had a trend for a greater reduction in total insulin area than deletion homozygotes (P = 0.07). These results indicate that ST has a more favorable effect on insulin response to an OGTT in men than in women and offer some support for the hypothesis that ACE genotype may influence insulin responses to ST.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the effects of resistive training (RT) on insulin action and assess the determinants of the changes in insulin action. DESIGN Longitudinal study. SETTING Outpatient setting. PARTICIPANTS Eighteen older men and older postmenopausal women (65-74 years) with normal (6 men and 5 women) or impaired glucose tolerance (4 men and 3 women). INTERVENTION Six months of progressive whole-body RT. MEASUREMENTS Upper and lower body strength was assessed by the one repetition maximum test. Total body fat and fat-free mass (FFM) were determined by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry before and after 6 months of RT. Insulin sensitivity was estimated from the relationship of glucose utilization (M) to the concentration of insulin (I) during the last 30 minutes of 3-hour hyperinsulinemic-euglycenic clamps (240 pmol x min(-2) x min(-1)) (M/I) before and after RT. RESULTS RT significantly improved upper- and lower-body muscular strength (P < .005). FFM increased after RT in the entire group (P < .01) with no significant change in body fat. Although the change in M was larger in men (13%) than women (3%), the difference was not significant. The change in M was a function of initial M (r = -0.53, P < .05). There was a trend (0.060+/-0.006 vs 0.066+/-0.006 micromol x kg(-1) x min(-1)/pmol/l, n = 18) for M/I to increase after RT in the combined group of men and women (P = .06). There were no significant relationships between changes in M or M/I with changes in body composition or strength. CONCLUSION A 6-month RT program tends to improve insulin action in insulin-resistant older adults. These results suggest that RT may be useful in ameliorating insulin resistance that often occurs with physical inactivity, obesity, and loss of muscular strength in older insulin resistant men and women.

Abstract
Availability of quantitative indexes of insulin secretion is important for definition of the alterations in beta-cell responsivity to glucose associated with different physiopathological states. This is presently possible by using the intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT) in conjunction with the C-peptide minimal model. However, the secretory response to a more physiological slowly increasing/decreasing glucose stimulus may uncover novel features of beta-cell function. Therefore, plasma C-peptide and glucose data from a graded glucose infusion protocol (seven 40-min periods of 0, 4, 8, 16, 8, 4, and 0 mg. kg(-1). min(-1)) in eight normal subjects were analyzed by use of a new model of insulin secretion and kinetics. The model assumes a two-compartment description of C-peptide kinetics and describes the stimulatory effect on insulin secretion of both glucose concentration and the rate at which glucose increases. It provides in each individual the insulin secretion profile and three indexes of pancreatic sensitivity to glucose: Phi(s), Phi(d), and Phi(b), related, respectively, to the control of insulin secretion by the glucose level (static control), the rate at which glucose increases (dynamic control), and basal glucose. Indexes (means +/- SE) were Phi(s) = 18.8 +/- 1.8 (10(9) min(-1)), Phi(d) = 222 +/- 30 (10(9)), and Phi(b) = 5.2 +/- 0.4 (10(9) min(-1)). The model also allows one to quantify the beta-cell times of response to increasing and decreasing glucose stimulus, equal to 5.7 +/- 2.2 (min) and 17.8 +/- 2.0 (min), respectively. In conclusion, the graded glucose infusion protocol, interpreted with a minimal model of C-peptide secretion and kinetics, provides a quantitative assessment of pancreatic function in an individual. Its application to various physiopathological states should provide novel insights into the role of insulin secretion in the development of glucose intolerance.

Abstract
Insulin resistance, a reduction in the rate of glucose disposal elicited by a given insulin concentration, is present in individuals who are obese, and those with diabetes mellitus, and may develop with aging. Methods which are utilised to measure insulin sensitivity include the hyperinsulinaemic-euglycaemic and hyperglycaemic clamps and the intravenous glucose tolerance tests. Several hormones and regulatory factors affect insulin action and may contribute to the insulin resistance observed in obesity. In addition, abnormal free fatty acid metabolism plays an important role in insulin resistance and the abnormal carbohydrate metabolism seen in individuals who are obese or diabetic. Thus, the mechanisms underlying the development of insulin resistance are multifactorial, and also involve alterations of the insulin signalling pathway. Aging is associated with an increase in bodyweight and fat mass. Not only is abdominal fat associated with hyperinsulinaemia but visceral adiposity is correlated with insulin resistance as well. Modifications of the changes in body composition with aging by diet and exercise training could delay the onset of insulin resistance. Weight loss and aerobic and resistive exercise training result in losses of total body fat and abdominal fat. Several studies report that bodyweight loss increases insulin sensitivity and improves glucose tolerance. In addition, the insulin resistance observed in aged persons can be modified by physical training. Longitudinal studies indicate significant improvements in glucose metabolism with aerobic exercise training in middle-aged and older men and women. Moreover, the improvements in insulin sensitivity with resistive training are similar in magnitude to those achieved with aerobic exercise. The improvements in glucose metabolism after bodyweight loss and exercise training may in some cases be partially attributed to changes in body composition, including reductions in total and central body fat. Yet, additional changes in skeletal muscle, blood flow and other mechanisms likely interact to modify insulin resistance with exercise training. Lifestyle modifications including bodyweight loss and physical activity provide health benefits and functional gains and should be promoted to increase insulin sensitivity and prevent glucose intolerance and type 2 diabetes mellitus in older adults.

Abstract
Advancing age is associated with reduced skeletal muscle protein synthesis, altered expression of and chemical modifications to muscle proteins, reduced muscle strength, muscle strength per unit muscle mass and muscle power (sarcopenia). These age-associated impairments in the quantity and quality of contractile protein contribute to physical disability and frailty, a loss of independent function, the risk of falling and fractures, and escalating health-care costs. Progressive resistance exercise training is a potent, non-pharmacologic, efficacious therapy for the impairment in muscle quantity and quality in middle age and physically frail adults. Evidence is accumulating that dietary amino acid supplementation may also improve muscle protein balance in the elderly. Several potential cellular mechanisms for the loss of muscle protein and resistance exercise-induced improvements in muscle quantity and quality in elderly adults are reviewed.

Abstract
Strength training (ST) is considered a promising intervention for reversing the loss of muscle function and the deterioration of muscle structure that is associated with advanced age. This reversal is thought to result in improvements in functional abilities and health status in the elderly by increasing muscle mass, strength and power and by increasing bone mineral density (BMD). In the past couple of decades, many studies have examined the effects of ST on risk factors for age-related diseases or disabilities. Collectively, these studies indicate that ST in the elderly: (i) is an effective intervention against sarcopenia because it produces substantial increases in the strength, mass, power and quality of skeletal muscle; (ii) can increase endurance performance; (iii) normalises blood pressure in those with high normal values; (iv) reduces insulin resistance; (v) decreases both total and intra-abdominal fat; (vi) increases resting metabolic rate in older men; (vii) prevents the loss of BMD with age; (viii) reduces risk factors for falls; and (ix) may reduce pain and improve function in those with osteoarthritis in the knee region. However, contrary to popular belief, ST does not increase maximal oxygen uptake beyond normal variations, improve lipoprotein or lipid profiles, or improve flexibility in the elderly.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the effects of 16 weeks of resistive training alone (RT) and with weight loss (RT+WL) on insulin action, plasma leptin concentrations and leptin's relationship to beta-cell sensitivity to glucose, resting metabolic rate (RMR), and plasma catecholamines in older women. SUBJECTS Fifteen obese postmenopausal women aged 50-69 y. MEASUREMENTS Body composition (by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry), RMR (by indirect calorimetry), insulin action (by 2 h hyperglycemic clamps; 7.9 mmol/l above basal plasma glucose levels), plasma leptin and insulin (by RIA), and plasma catecholamines (by enzymatic methods). RESULTS RT and RT+WL resulted in significant improvements in muscular strength (P<0.01) with no changes in maximal oxygen consumption. Body weight, fat mass and percent body fat did not change with RT, but decreased with RT+WL (P<0.001). Fat-free mass and RMR increased after training when both groups were combined (P<0.05). The insulin response during the last 20 min of the 2 h hyperglycemic clamps decreased 16% after RT (P=0.05), 43% after RT+WL (P<0.05), and 29% in the entire group (P<0. 01) without any changes in glucose utilization. Plasma leptin levels did not change after RT, but decreased by 36% after RT+WL (P<0.05). Baseline leptin levels correlated with body weight (r=0.68, P<0.01), body fat mass (r=0.77, P<0.001), and RMR (kcal/d; (r=0.69, P<0.005), but not with baseline norepinephrine or epinephrine levels. Plasma leptin levels correlated with basal insulin (r=0.73, P<0.005), and approached significance with the 0-10 min and 100-120 min insulin response to hyperglycemia before training (both r=0.51, P=0.07). In the entire group, the change in insulin response from 100-120 min during the clamp correlated with the change in leptin levels (r=0.60, P<0.05), but this was not independent of changes in fat mass. CONCLUSIONS Although changes in leptin levels were not related to changes in RMR or plasma catecholamines after RT with and without weight loss, the increase in insulin action after training and weight loss may be related to the decrease in leptin levels that were mediated by the loss of body fat in the obese, postmenopausal women.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The normal decline in physiological function with ageing is associated with a decrease in bioavailable growth hormone. Growth hormone has been shown to alter body composition and increase fat-free mass in older men. Increased physical fitness is accompanied by an increase in 24-h growth hormone release. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of exercise on declining growth hormone concentrations with increasing age. DESIGN AND PATIENTS The growth hormone production of 10 male subjects running over 40 miles per week was compared to 10 healthy age-matched sedentary males (controls 57.7 +/- 2.8 vs. runners 60.5 +/- 3.4 years). All subjects underwent a basal assessment including a two-hour serum growth hormone profile followed by estimation of maximal exercise capacity on a cycle ergometer with growth hormone estimations at peak exercise activity and every five minutes whilst cycling at 40% of maximal exercise capacity. RESULTS Maximal exercise capacity confirmed the lifestyles of the two groups (VO2 max controls 22.36 +/-6.05 vs. runners 34.91 +/- 13.13 l/min/kg, P = 0.01). The runners had lower body-mass indices than controls (BMI 22. 3 +/- 1.5 vs. 25.5 +/- 2.0 kg/m2, P = 0.002). Peak growth hormone level during a two-hour resting profile was higher in the runners (median (range) controls 2.10 (0.20-12.20) vs. runners 5.25 (0.80-21. 00) mU/l, P = 0.03) as was the average growth hormone level during the two hour profile (mean growth hormone per 2 h median (range): controls 0.54 (0.03-4.88) vs. runners 2.17 (0.25-7.45) mU/l, P = 0. 04). Growth hormone production at maximal exercise capacity was similar. Sex hormone binding globulin and testosterone were significantly higher in the runners. CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that regular intensive exercise in older male subjects is associated with higher growth hormone and testosterone levels and that exercise may have a role in counteracting the normal decline in growth hormone with ageing.

Abstract
The insulin-modified intravenous glucose tolerance test (IM-IVGTT) is increasingly used to measure insulin sensitivity. However, the assessment of beta-cell secretion is usually made using rough indices. The aim here is to evaluate the ability of the minimal model of C-peptide secretion and kinetics recently proposed for the standard IVGTT (S-IVGTT) to also assess beta-cell function during the IM-IVGTT. C-peptide and glucose data from the IM-IVGTT in 15 normal humans were analyzed. The results show that the same rich beta-cell picture from the S-IVGTT can be obtained during an IM-IVGTT. In particular, in each individual, the time course of beta-cell secretion can be reconstructed and the functional indices of glucose control on first-phase (phi1), second-phase (phi2), and basal (phi(b)) insulin secretion can be estimated (phi1 = 191 +/- 29, phi2 = 10.9 +/- 1.4 x 10(-9) x min(-1), and phi(b) = 5.7 +/- 1.0 x 10(-9) x min(-1), mean +/- SE). Finally, the comparison between IM-IVGTT and S-IVGTT phi1, phi2, and phi(b) values suggest they are not affected by insulin administration.
