Whole Body Vibration Therapy in Individuals With Type 2 Diabetes

Each exercise session will be performed with a frequency of 30 Hz and an amplitude of 2 mm. Participants are in a 110° squat position on the platform (the degree will be adjusted using a goniometer). Participants will exercise for 16 minutes from week one to week three, 20 minutes from week four to week six and 24 minutes from week seven to week eight, respectively (8 iterations and 1 minute of vibration with 1 minute interval between each iteration)

From week one to week three, from week four to week six and from week seven to week eight, the participants will exercise for 30 minutes (5 minutes of running at 60-70% of heart rate and 5 minutes of active rest at 30-45% of maximum heart rate), 42 minutes (7 minutes of running at 60-70% of heart rate and 7 minutes of active rest at 30-45% of maximum heart rate) and 60 minutes (10 minutes of running at 60-70% of heart rate and 10 minutes of active rest at 30-45% of maximum heart rate). The exercise sessions consist of warm-up, main program and cool-down phases.
