Effects of aerobic or resistance exercise and/or diet on glucose tolerance and plasma insulin levels in obese men.

OBJECTIVE: This study had two objectives. First, we examined whether the influence of diet combined with either aerobic (DA) (n = 10) or resistance (DR) (n = 10) exercise has effects on insulin and glucose levels that are different in obese men. Second, we tried to determine whether the combination of diet and exercise is associated with improvements in insulin and glucose levels that are greater than those associated with diet alone (DO) (n =...
