ABSTRACT
Due to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, people's physical activity has declined by 35% because their time spent at home has increased. Decreased physical activity can increase both the number of people with type 2 diabetes annually by more than 11.1 million and the number of deaths by more than 1.7 million. Thus, exercise is important during the COVID-19 pandemic, especially in relation to diabetes. If a person with the COVID-19 virus lacks exercise, the risk of hospitalization is increased by 2.2 times and the risk of death by 2.5 times. In the context of COVID-19, the purpose of home training for patients with diabetes mellitus is to reduce body fat percentage, increase muscle function and mass, and improve insulin resistance. The recommended home training program is a circuit-based exercise regime that combines aerobic exercise and strength exercise. In addition, muscle stretching exercises are recommended for home training programs to increase muscle function.
