Abstract :The Aim of this study is to verify the effects of adapted physical activity on the cardiorespiratory health and body composition of obese diabetic patients.  Thirty-two type 2 diabetes insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(T2D); patients insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(11 men, 21 women);, aged 39-70 years, were randomly divided into two groups   according to body mass index, group 1: 20 overweight subjects insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(BMI <30); and group 2:  12 obese subjects insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(BMI> 30); undergoing a program Adapted physical activity of moderate intensity to severe during 3 months at the rate of 3 sessions of one hour per week. The paired student`s t-test was used to evaluate the effect of the intervention program on the 6-minute walk test, arterial blood pressure, heart rate, weight, waist circumference, total fat, and visceral and lean mass. After 3 months of the practice of adapted physical activities, we observed significant changes in their resting heart rate of -6.06 bpm insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p<0.05);, systolic blood pressure of -7.8 mmHg insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p<0.05);, fasting blood glucose of -86.68mg/dl insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p<0.05);, maximum oxygen consumption of +6.13ml / kg / min insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p<0.05);, total fat of -5.89% insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p<0.05);, weight of -8.27kg insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p<0.05);, body mass index of -5.17 kg/m2 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p<0.05); and waist circumference of -5.66 cm insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p<0.05); and their muscular percentage increased significantly by + 9.17%. Regular physical activity allows type 2 diabetics patients to improve their cardiorespiratory fitness and change their body composition.
