High-intensity training. Maximal time (min) and velocity (km/h) test. Rats were submitted to an exercise test before (control) and after induction of diabetes. Week 0 corresponds to the time point after the confirmation of diabetes. From week 0, the result of each week test was used to calculate the 80% of maximal capacity for the next week training. Then, every week, a maximal capacity test was performed. ††† versus all the other groups; versus week 0; versus week 0; versus week 0.
