A proposed study with subjects experiencing some degree of neuropathy may require a smaller sample size. This study did not have a supervised control group meaning that the exercise group received more face to face time with the investigators and they received information from a qualified physical education instructor. The study also did not include any resistance exercise and the subjects that were tested showed no signs or symptoms of DPN. Measured motor and sural sensory nerves using a Medelec MS 928 Neurostar. Measured the nerve conduction velocity as well as the nerve action potential amplitude. Vibration perception threshold was tested by using a Biothesiometer and the vibration amplitude was increased until the patient could feel it.
