BetterMe has launched a diabetes-friendly workout programme, developed in collaboration with Diabetes UK.

BetterMe, a leading global health and wellness platform, launched a collection of diabetes-friendly workouts within the BetterMe: Health Coaching app to mark Diabetes Alert Day. The programme has been reviewed by Diabetes UK, the leading UK charity for people living with diabetes.

More than 12 million people in the UK are living with or at risk of diabetes, and for many, exercise can often feel daunting due to the complexities of managing blood sugar levels. This specialised programme provides easy-to-follow workouts, with proceeds from new sign-ups supporting Diabetes UK.

The programme features workouts that combine strength and cardio. These sessions focus on building strength, improving cardiovascular fitness, and supporting glucose management through safe, accessible movement. It also includes gentle recovery sessions, such as stretching and myofascial release, helping users support muscle recovery and maintain mobility.

James Beeby, director of engagement and fundraising at Diabetes UK, said: "We're delighted to support this new diabetes-friendly workout programme. We know that physical activity is an important part of managing diabetes, but many people living with the condition face additional barriers to feeling confident in movement.

“By combining the workout programme with BetterMe's holistic approach to wellness, people can feel safe and informed as they take steps to improve their overall health and wellbeing."

With over 4,000 workouts and 20+ meal plans with hundreds of recipes, BetterMe continues to lead the way in personalised wellness solutions.

The diabetes-friendly collection of workouts is now available globally within the BetterMe: Health Coaching app on the iOS App Store and Google Play Store.
