NCT03550105

Brief Summary

Physical Inactivity and excessive sedentary behavior are risk factors for diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Movement is important for overall health. This study will assess the validity and usefulness of low risk, non-invasive wellness device, the Gentle Jogger® (GJ) that passively simulates the physical activities of jogging. The study will evaluate whether or not use of GJ modifies glycemic control and muscle strength in subjects who are known to be diabetic and those who are not. The study volunteers are subjects between the ages of 25-80yr.
