Weekly blood glucose (a) and body weight (b) data. STZ denotes the start of streptozotocin injections to induce T1DM in DS and DT animals. Insulin denotes the start of insulin treatment for DS and DT animals. RT denotes the start of the resistance training regimen for CT and DT animals. (a) Mean weekly nonfasting blood glucose measures (mmol/l). Data is presented as . # denotes a significant difference between T1DM and control animals. denotes a significant difference between DS and all other groups. (b) Mean weekly body weight measures (g). Data is presented as . No differences were observed between groups within any timepoint. Abbreviations: RT: resistance training; STZ: streptozotocin.
