-FIT Diabetes is a specialized fitness program specifically tailored to the Pre-Diabetic and Diabetic Individual (both type 1 and 2). D-FIT program incorporates strength training, aerobic fitness, core strength, stretching, and flexibility while taking into account the challenges that arise during training. As a personal trainer I work with the individual to attain their fitness goal in the healthiest way possible. If you have been diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes, imagine going off insulin, reversing complications associated with the disease, or just being able to control your condition with exercise and diet. D-FIT Diabetes in conjunction with a healthy diet and prescribed medication regimen will assist in:
-Increasing glucose uptake into skeletal muscle via an insulin dependent mechanism and an insulin independent mechanism (Increasing insulin sensitivity)
-Lowering fasting blood sugar acutely and chronically
-Assisting in weight loss
-Reducing symptoms of depression and improving quality of life
-Lowering hemoglobin A1C levels
-Preventing Cardiovascular Disease and other Diabetes related complications
-Preventing or delaying onset of Type 2 Diabetes

Before beginning any type of exercise program one should get clearance from their doctor, specialist, and/or diabetes educator. Insulin-dependent diabetics need special advice. Insulin or medication doses and food consumption habits will probably need modification. Diabetic complications require special consideration when it comes to exercise.

This is so true! Eating Healthy Fats rich in Omega 3's and decreasing your carbs (not eliminating) will keep you lean, healthy, increase insulin sensitivity, increase thyroid function even get rid of hypothyroid!, keep you full longer, help keep your skin, nails, and hair healthy, improve brain function. I recommend getting most of your carbs from veggies, berries, rice, dark chocolate but mostly in the evening as you want your body to be burning fat for fuel through out the day instead of tapping into those glycogen stores :).
