First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looked at whether doing calisthenic exercises (like bodyweight moves) through video calls with a physiotherapist could improve oxygen use, muscle health, and physical activity in adults with type 2 diabetes. Forty participants completed the program, exercising 30-45 minutes, three days a week for six weeks. The goal was to see if this convenient, home-based approach could help manage the condition.
