[QUOTE="Stephen Lewis, post: 2253195, member: 479176"] I am T2 but had the same reaction after a very intense weightlifting work out. My solution was to keep weightlifting until I lost much of the sub-muscular fat around my waist. It seems to me that this is the source of the glucose dump by the liver during and after the exercise. Now that I have lost about 8 inches off my waist the glucose spike on my Libre does not occur. A couple of months ago I had to stop the gym following a relatively minor accident. I put on some weight and when I got back to the gym I started having the (minor) spikes again. This stopped after a couple of weeks. Currently all the gyms in my area have been closed for over a month. I fully expect the spikes to come back when I get back to the gym but hopefully not for too long. In my case as a T2 I have been able to make a further reduction in my daily carb intake so I hope I can stop any weight gain. "Weight lifting causes weight falling." [/QUOTE]
