Analysis of Some Therapeutic Methods for Improving the Morphological Profile of Male Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Aged 40–60 Years

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the effect of walking at the “LIPOXmax” point on some morphological variables in male patients with type 2 diabetes aged 40–60 years, through several morphological indicators, namely body mass, body fat percentage, and abdominal fat percentage. To achieve this, a specific and carefully designed training program was developed in line with the needs and characteristics of this group. The program included walking exercises at the “LIPOXmax” point and lasted long enough to show its effectiveness. The results of the statistical analysis showed statistically significant differences for each variable in the study, which indicates that the implemented program produced positive results and highlights the importance of walking for this group. The analysis of these results showed that walking at the “LIPOXmax” point in patients with type II diabetes aged 40–60 years leads to a reduction in overall body fat percentage, as well as a decrease in abdominal fat percentage. It also has a positive effect on reducing body mass.
