Introduction: Type 2 diabetes is a metabolic disorder characterized by insufficient insulin secretion and reduced cellular sensitivity to insulin, leading to elevated blood glucose levels. This study was conducted with aim to investigate the effects of 12 weeks of Pilates training on serum irisin levels and lipid profile in women with type 2 diabetes.
Methods: This randomized clinical trial was conducted in 2023 on 30 women aged 35–55 years with type 2 diabetes in Isfahan, Iran. Participants were randomly assigned to either an experimental or a control group. The experimental group performed progressive Pilates exercises for 12 weeks, three sessions per week, each lasting 50 minutes, while the control group continued their routine lifestyle. Blood samples were collected before and after the intervention to measure irisin levels and lipid profile. Data analysis was performed using SPSS statistical software (version 25) and analysis of covariance and Shapiro-Wilk tests. P<0.05 was considered significant.
Results: According to the results of the study, 12 weeks of Pilates training increased serum irisin levels (p=0.001), decreased cholesterol (p=0.001), triglycerides (p=0.001), and LDL (p=0.001), and increased HDL (p=0.001) in women with type 2 diabetes.
Conclusion: Pilates training can improve serum irisin levels and lipid profile; therefore, it may be an effective therapeutic approach for women with type 2 diabetes.
