Research titel and description

Optimizing Self-Management in Type 2 Diabetes: The Role of High Intensity Interval Training in Enhancing Health Outcomes

I investigate how municipal diabetes self-management programmes (DSMPs) can be optimized with physical activity to increase their accessibility, effectiveness, and appeal for people with type 2 diabetes.

The project consists of three studies:

  • A randomized controlled trial examining the effects of DSMPs with and without high-intensity interval training on physical activity and health outcomes.
  • A qualitative study exploring how individuals decide whether to participate in high-intensity training.
  • A register- and survey-based study mapping participation in DSMPs and identifying differences between participants and non-participants.

Together, these studies will inform future models for DSMPs at the regional level.
