Should diabetics follow the fitt principle?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
FITT principle : Vigorous and strenuous exercise are not needed for managing diabetes or hypertension. Even 30 min walking every other day is good enough to keep us healthy. If your health allows more vigorous exercise, you are welcome to do.
