Abstract
(First Paragraph) In this issue, I have the pleasure of further reinforcing for you the benefits of engaging in regular exercise, along with the more expansive realm of appropriate physical activities for people with diabetes. Although physical activity is a cornerstone in the management of diabetes, and the health benefits of exercise are widely touted as "medicine" for diabetes, many individuals with this chronic disease fail to become or remain regularly active.
