A decrease of blood glucose across

A decrease of blood glucose across time was observed, except for after exercise (Fig. 1). No change was observed in pre-exercise levels of SBP (Fig. 2) and DBP across time (Fig. 3). Despite the fact that this study suggested only 90 min of weekly exercise training, instead of the mini- mum of 150 min of exercise recommended by several sports medicine associations [5], a significant improve- ment in blood glucose level was observed in the partici- pant. Our findings were in agreement with a recent case study in a woman of similar age and pathologies, where resistance training was beneficial for health and quality of life [10]. The present study could not discriminate which type of exercise, resistance or aerobic exercise, was more effective; however, the data confirmed the largest decrease in glucose level measurements at the end of the exercise. The blood pressure values indicated long-term stability and were very close to the normal values (130–80 mmHg). A specific dietary plan was suggested; nevertheless, the patient did not successfully follow the nutritional restric- tions and several glucose measurements were higher than normal. At the end of the fifth month, the patient reported
