Metabolic adaptation

ADA/ISPAD goal achievement was associated with greater cardiopulmonary fitness, with VO2peak values significantly higher in those meeting more goals.

Practitioners should promote achieving ADA/ISPAD goals to enhance cardiopulmonary fitness in adolescents with type 1 diabetes.

Upright VO2peak was lower in youth who met 0-3 goals (25.8 ± 4.6 mL/kg/min) vs those who met 4 goals (33.0 ± 7.8 mL/kg/min, P = .01) and those who met 5-6 goals (33.2 ± 4.4 mL/kg/min, P = .004).
