Exercise is widely recommended for the treatment of obesity, insulin resistance, and type II diabetes mellitus. Recent discoveries in the molecular and cellular regulation of insulin-mediated glucose metabolism in skeletal muscle have provided a deeper understanding of how exercise modulates insulin action.
