However, do not overdo it!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For those with type 2 diabetes, follow the expert opinion of your diabetologist and physical therapist to know the ideal workout schedule. It is advisable to rest after strength training or an intense miscellaneous workout session.
