Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
People with Type 2 Diabetes will be advised to engage in moderate intensity walking (Borg RPE 11-13) physical activity every day for 5 months (~150 min/week, ~22 min/day). Participants will be randomised to 1 of 3 groups; 1) 8-wk Waitlist Control (standard care 150 min/wk, exercise at any time) followed by randomised interventions; or 2) daily Exercise at peak hyperglycaemia (identified individually from CGM data); 3) daily Exercise not at peak (identified individually from CGM data. The intervention period is 8 weeks, 5 sessions are supervised by an Accredited Exercise Physiologist and the majority of sessions performed at home unsupervised. Adherence will be assessed using accelerometry mid 8-wk intervention, post 8-wk intervention and after a 3 month free living period where participants will be asked to continue their prescribed exercise intervention independently and without contact.

Efficacy
Statistical methods / analysis
Data will first be assessed for normality using Q-Q plots, histograms and the shapiro-wilk test. A Linear mixed model (with time x intervention interaction, and main effects of time) will compare the changes in study outcomes between intervention & control groups.

Summary
Brief summary
This project seeks to determine the feasibility and effectiveness of timing exercise to control blood glucose levels and reduce cardiovascular risk in people with Type 2 Diabetes. People with Type 2 Diabetes will be randomised to standard care alone or with time of exercise specified to coincide with/avoid blood glucose peak. It is hypothesised that individually prescribing ‘the time’ a person should exercise will optimised blood glucose control and attenuate peak blood glucose when compared to standard care and exercise at times other than peak.
