Exercises will be performed with minimal weight bearing on foot soles, as recommended in the literature for people with diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

The overall framework will consist of two supervised exercise sessions per week of 30-60 min duration for 12 weeks in order to be able to result in the physiological adaptions that are needed to improve the health of the individual participant.

will be analysed by dividing number of included participants (n = 15) by the number of months it took to include them (calculated from study start until the 15th participant is recruited).

will be evaluated by the number of participants showing up at 12-week follow up.

will be evaluated using exercise logs completed at each session by the physiotherapist covering load and intensity. Adherence will be calculated by counting number of exercise sessions completed in the exercise log, divided by 24 planned sessions, presented in percentage.

Safety will be assessed based on observed and patient-reported adverse events, and their relatedness to the index ulcer and to the exercise program.

Minor adverse events will cover muscle soreness or post-exercise fatigue. Whereas serious adverse events will cover all negative events related to the foot ulcer, and cover life- threatening events, disability, or permanent damage

will be provided at 12-week follow up on a custom-made interviews with open questions on acceptability of assessment procedures, treatment experience, and feedback about the supervised sessions and potential adverse events

To test leg strength and endurance of participants the 30-second chair-stand test will be performed at baseline and at the last day of follow-up.
