Hi. I have just joined the gym and have had a program set out for me after discussing my diabetes and fitness levels with a trainer. I do cardio one day and the next day I do weights. I checked my basal rates before going and they are ok. I always wake up with high sugar levels (in the region of 11-13) and pre gym I would inject to correct this with my breakfast. I have noticed if I do not inject and then I train at the gym my levels can drop quite a bit. For example. Yesterday pre workout levels were 13. For breakfast I had two scrambled eggs and a slice of wholemeal toast. I trained an hour later. After 30 mins of training (treadmill, rower and cross trainer) my levels were 7.0. The other day my levels dropped by 10mml after an hour of training. I am just wondering why?! I am monitoring My heart rate which is around 120/160 max when training at peak. Any advice welcome. Thanks.
