Background: Type 2 diabetes is associated with reduced lung function. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of two different intensities of concurrent training on pulmonary function in female patients with type II diabetes.
Methods: 24 women with type 2 diabetes were recruited as volunteers and were randomly assigned to one of three groups: high intensity (A), moderate intensity (B), and a control group (C). The training program included 12 weeks of Concurrent exercises training (resistance-aerobic) with high intensity (resistance at 75-85% of 1-RM and aerobic at 70-85% of maximum heart rate) and moderate intensity (resistance at 50-75% of 1-RM and aerobic at 70-50% of maximum heart rate).  These trainings were held in 3 nonconsecutive sessions per week, 55-70 minutes for each session. Before and after the 12 weeks training, blood samples, spirometric tests, special strength of respiratory muscles and the upper body strength were taken from all subjects.
Results: The results from pre- and post-test in subjects showed a significant interaction effect (P < 0.05) in FEF25, FEF50, FEF2575, FEV1/FVC, HbA1C, and %fat. For other parameters, there was no significant interaction effect.
Conclusion: The results showed that only respiratory and physiological parameters improve as a result of concurrent exercises with different intensities and both types of exercise program can be beneficial in some indicators for female patients with type 2 diabetes.
