[QUOTE="Bebo321, post: 1042441, member: 68730"] Hi [USER=126125]@MISTY10[/USER] I know some people cope with post exercise liver glucose release (gluconeogenesis) by upping their insulin after they finish. Another way you can curb the rise is to do a more drawn out cool-down after a run. The heart rate needs to be lowered enough for the body to stop the cortisol induced stress response. With a lower heart rate (but still exercising), your muscles will be re-stocking with glycogen as fast as they can - drawing out glucose directly from the bloodstream. They don't actually need insulin for this. A cool down should help curb post-exercise high. Have you considered asking for advice in the Team Blood Glucose Sporty Type 1's Facebook group? It might be worth joining if you want more detailed advice about insulin adjustments. [URL="http://www.teambloodglucose.com"]www.teambloodglucose.com[/URL] [/QUOTE]
