Study Summary
This proposal's objective is to investigate the effects of a high-intensity intermittent stair climbing program on insulin resistance in individuals with obesity and at risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Obesity (defined as body mass index ≥ 30kg/m2) is a major risk factor for T2D. The connection between obesity and T2D involves the development of insulin resistance (IR). Exercise training is an effective non-pharmacological approach to prevent and treat IR. Despite the efficacy of exercise training on ameliorating IR, most individuals do not achieve the minimum recommended levels of physical activity and cite "lack of time" and difficulty in accessing exercise facilities as barriers to exercise. Proposed as a time-efficient alternative, high-intensity interval training (HIIT), which consists of short periods of high-intensity efforts alternated with brief periods of recovery, is an efficient strategy to improve IR. However, most HIIT protocols have been studied in laboratory-based settings requiring access to specialized equipment (i.e. treadmills, cycle ergometers) and are not practical for the general population. The use of high-intensity intermittent stair climbing may be a suitable exercise strategy from an accessibility perspective. With evidence to suggest improvements in IR following HIIT in individuals with obesity or T2D, the application of a similar approach using high-intensity intermittent stair climbing to directly assess changes in IR in a population at risk of T2D populations is warranted. Completion of this study will help elucidate if an easy to implement, time-efficient and low-cost exercise training program improves insulin resistance in individuals at risk of T2D.
