[QUOTE="shedges, post: 675867, member: 10554"] I've not found any type exercise that pushes my sugars up. Always take a 20-40g carb snack before hand (depending on length and intensity of exercise) and always find myself pretty much normal after. I was really frustrated when starting on my pump because I decided to NOT exercise initially so I could sort my levels out. I was permanently high, despite recommended basal rates based on weight, activity levels and overall carb intake. Through desperation I started running, gym, football again and guess what... levels went right back to what they should be. My advice (this is just one person's opinion) is to [B]live as normally as possible when embarking on any new regime[/B]; otherwise, you'll not get true results and when you do go back to your old routine you may need to adjust all the good work you've done up to then.
