Becoming Physically Active

Physical activity may include structured activities such as walking, jogging, strength training or sports. It may also include daily activities such as household chores, yard work or walking the dog. Pick a combination of structured and daily activities that fits into a schedule. If a person has been inactive for a while, start slowly and work up to at least 150 minutes per week at a comfortable pace. Remember that a person may build up activity over the course of the day in sessions of 10 minutes or more if the individual is are unable to be active for longer periods. For example, whether a person takes three 10-minute walks or one 30-minute walk, the person achieves the same health benefits. If a person wants to lose weight, the person may need to do more than 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity per week. Remember that anyone can be active in several shorter sessions and that daily activities count toward calories used.
Regular physical activity may help a person control weight and it may also help: reduce the risk for type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure and cholesterol, heart disease, osteoporosis, arthritis and some cancers, build strong muscles, bones and joints, improve flexibility, increase energy levels, mood and sense of well being.

Type 2 Diabetes and Weight

Type 2 diabetes is a disease in which blood sugar levels are above normal. High blood sugar is a major cause of coronary heart disease, kidney disease, stroke, amputation and blindness. In 2002, diabetes was the sixth leading cause of death in the United States.
Type 2 diabetes is the most common type of diabetes in the United States. This form of diabetes is most often associated with old age, obesity, family history of diabetes, previous history of gestational diabetes and physical inactivity. The disease is more common among certain ethnic populations.
More than 85 percent of people with Type 2 diabetes are overweight. Doctors do not know exactly why overweight people are more likely to develop diabetes. Doctors think that being overweight causes cells to change, making them resistant to the hormone insulin. Insulin carries sugar from blood to the cells, where it is used for energy. When a person is insulin resistant, blood sugar cannot be taken up by the cells, resulting in high blood sugar. In addition, the cells that produce insulin must work extra hard to try to keep blood sugar normal. This may cause these cells to gradually fail.
A person may lower his or her risk for developing Type 2 diabetes by losing weight and increasing the amount of physical activity he or she does. If a person has Type 2 diabetes, losing weight and becoming more physically active can help him or her control blood sugar levels and prevent or delay complications. Losing weight and exercising more may also allow a person to reduce the amount of diabetes medication he or she takes. The Diabetes Prevention Program, a large clinical study sponsored by the National Institutes of Health, found that losing just five to seven percent of body weight and doing moderate-intensity exercise for 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week, may prevent or delay the onset of Type 2 diabetes.
