[QUOTE="borofergie, post: 275933, member: 33342"] Low intensity exercise is fuelled mainly by fat. Very high intensity exercise is fuelled entirely by glucose. The harder you exercise the more glucose that your muscles burn, causing your BG to drop to a stage where your liver-dumps and your BG rises. I eat hardly any carbs, but after a 5k race my BG can go over 10mmol/l. If I go for a 9 mile steady run, it'll be about 5mmol/l. I honestly wouldn't worry about it. Post exercise you're muscle insulin sensitivity will be much increased and you'll suck up sugar, both to refuel them and to refill your liver. [/QUOTE]
