Pregnant women exercise at a higher intensity during 30 min of self-paced cycling compared with walking during late gestation: Implications for 2 h postprandial glucose levels

Objective To compare the effect of an acute 30-min bout of self-paced stationary cycling (SC) with treadmill walking (TW) or a resting control (CON) on maternal blood glucose, insulin and metabolic responses during pregnancy.
