Description of short interval muscle training technique to help diabetics and pre-diabetics maintain good glycemic control to prevent disease progression. This technique also seems to prevent weight regain, which will lead to recovery with enough weight loss. The technique could be used also for dieters who easily regain their weight, it selectively puts carbohydrates into muscle rather than fat cells.
