[QUOTE="DanW13, post: 2667613, member: 531379"] Hi Gary, HistorIcally never enjoyed weights, always been a runner who reluctantly did a few weights! When I was diagnosed as prediabetic it was during Covid lockdown and that meant I did no real weights at all as gym was shut, which was a big factor in the loss of muscle. Now going 3-4 times per week, so far so good but early days still for me. Most of the blood sugar improvement was diet driven. Main reason i mentioned it was your BMI is already low, so presumably you don’t want to lose weight particularly, which is something it’s hard to avoid when you go low carb. I dropped from a BMI of 25 to 21 in 12 months for example. Building a bit of muscle can help offset things a bit, as can upping intake of healthy fats. [/QUOTE]
