Hi folks
Recently started the gym, through GP referral.
I've only tested my BG levels pre gym, reading between 8 to 9.5. It's never been low in the morning irrelevant of whether I've eaten after 7 or not the eve before.
I've recorded it twice on the two mornings following the gym and it's recorded higher than when I got up. Readings around 10 or 11.
As I'm new to this, can anyone explain why this has happened please? (In easy terms). Don't blind me with science as I haven't gained that knowledge yet.
I realise our cells require energy to function and wonder if what the liver deposits, were higher during and after exercise.
Thanks so much
