It has been shown that low values of insulin sensitivity have been related to metabolic diseases. Exercise prescription is crucial to prevent low insulin sensitivity in general population, and athletes are good physiological model. If this assumption is correct, examine insulin sensitivity in elite athletes should reflect the positive effect of exercise on insulin sensitivity. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of regular exercise on insulin sensitivity estim...
