Objective: The aim of this investigation was to examine the effect of aerobic and resistance training on the skeletal muscle mitochondrial function. Setting: Wellington Hospital New Zealand, Massey University, Wellington Campus New Zealand. Period: Sep 2008- Sep 2011 Results: There was a very large effect (6.7 ± 1.2) in the AER group for BHAD activity whereas in the PRT group a large effect (2.7 ± 1.2) for BHAD activity was observed. There was an increase in CS activity in both groups (PRT; p = 0.007, AER; p=0.03) however, the activity increase was more in the PRT group (effect size = 1.8 ± 1.3). COX activity was raised in both groups as well though the effect size in the PRT group was 2.3 ± 1.2 meaning a very large change with PRT exercise compared to a moderate effect (1.0 ± 1.2) with AER exercise. Conclusion: Overall these findings suggest that both PRT and AER exercise can be effective therapeutic modalities for the induction of changes at the cellular level in muscle of people with T2DM.
