Physical activity guidelines for adults with type 2 Diabetes: Systematic review

Diabetes Res Clin PractPublished Systematic review of clinical practice guidelines

Authors' conclusion

While guidelines consistently recommended aerobic exercise, there was limited emphasis on strength and flexibility exercises. Significant limitations in methodological and reporting quality were noted, especially in stakeholder involvement and applicability. Future guidelines should use a standardized FITT framework and adhere to standard development methods to enhance usability for healthcare professionals and patients.
