[QUOTE="Rylando88, post: 1740051, member: 406302"] I’ve been training 6/7 days a week for around 6 years now and from my experience resistance training and HIIT training increases my blood sugars FAST (unless they were already dropping before hand in which case i don’t start exercising until I’ve managed to bring them back up to a reasonable level). Any LISS or steady state training e.g. long run, bike ride my blood sugars will drop but usually at a slow rate so it’s much more manageable and if I work things out right before I start I can avoid having hypos! Might also be worth mentioning that after training my blood sugars tend to drop quite a bit, usually a couple of hours afterwards due to the body recovering and replenishing what it’s used, so just keep an eye out to avoid any issues there! Really though, everyone is slightly different so you’ll be best just trying a few things and working out how your body reacts personally and tailoring your exercises to suit I love my training it’s what gets me out of bed in the morning (not that I train of a morning though, I wait till after work ha!) Hope you get going and enjoy it, it’s a great thing exercise! Can’t recommend it enough!! [/QUOTE]
