Objective:
Adopt a multidisciplinary approach to evaluate a virtually supervised home-based high-intensity interval training (Home-HIT) intervention in people with type 1 diabetes.
Research Design And Methods:
Eleven individuals with type 1 diabetes (seven women; age 30 ± 3 years; [Formula: see text] 2.5 ± 0.2 L/min; duration of diabetes 10 ± 2 years) completed 6 weeks of Home-HIT. A heart rate monitor and mobile phone application were used to provide feedback to the participants and research team on exercise intensity (compliance) and adherence.
Results:
Training adherence was 95 ± 2%, and compliance was 99 ± 1%. Home-HIT increased [Formula: see text] by 7% (P = 0.017) and decreased insulin dose by 13% (P = 0.012). Blood glucose concentration did not change from baseline to immediately or 1 h post Home-HIT. Qualitative perceptions of Home-HIT and the virtual-monitoring system were positive, supporting that the intervention successfully removed exercise barriers in people with type 1 diabetes.
Conclusions:
Virtually monitored Home-HIT resulted in high adherence alongside increased [Formula: see text] and decreased insulin dose.
