Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Intensive Exercise Physiology Intervention.
Each case will be classified retrospectively into the intensive or low intensity group. The classification will be based on the number and length of sessions the participant spends with an Exercise Physiologist. The intensive group will consist of those participants who spend a total of hours with the exercise physiologist greater than the mean for the entire sample population over the intervention period.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 259571 0
Changes in the concentration of glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) indicating changes in plasma glucose over time will be assessed through regular pathology testing initiated by referring general practitioners. Patients will be asked to bring their most recent pathology results to each assessment session

Study design
Purpose of the study
Treatment
Allocation to intervention
Non-randomised trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
All participants will be enrolled according to the same criteria: suffering type II diabetes and referral from general practitioners for Exercise Physiology couselling provided by one of the two exercise physiology clinics participating in the study.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
This is a non randomised trial, the assignment to group will be retrospective according to the intensity (number of sessions with an exercise physiologist as defined in GP referral).
Masking / blinding
