[QUOTE="howie, post: 118757, member: 21140"] for me i find insulin is twice as effective when i'm exercisng so instead of 6 units with my brekky i do 3. i dont think the prob is burning sugar but increased insulin efficiency. i woke with 4.1mmol, checked just before run (15mins after eating) 5.8mmol. checked when i got back after 30mins run 4.9mmol. there's no need to be running high at all. i've been doin this for few weeks now practice made perfect, i dont take a meter and only stick a coupla tabs in my pocket cos i hardly consider going low now, i can just run free!!! (feels f**king great) + hour of weights when i get in sets me up in the low 4's ready for lunch and a protein shake. only prob i find is i'm prone to a stitch cos of eating right before getting active. keep up the exercise, howie [/QUOTE]
