[QUOTE="Skinny43, post: 2165092, member: 516352"] Hi guys/girls, has anybody done the 7 min workout challenge app at all? It’s an app on my phone and I occasionally do it. It’s basically core workout with pushups planks etc etc. The beauty is it only takes 7 mins. It really helps for someone like me who hasn’t got time for gym. Earlier this evening, we were going out for a meal but my little one fell asleep in the car so we decided to come back home for dinner - haven’t got a great selection of food available at home. My hubby made up of something like fried rice cake with prawns and celery. I had all the prawns and the celery but had a little bit of rice cake (it’s Chinese basically starch from glutinous rice flour - I know it’s sin for someone on low carb diet). It was so tempting I had a few pieces I think about 30grams which will have 15grams carbs). I also had a piece of dark chocolate. I was expecting a high number in the 8’s or high 7’s when testing two hour later. But it was only 5.7. How was that possible? I’ve never had after meal results below 6 before! I’m thinking it must be the workout that lowered blood glucose. Interesting as I had been for a 50 mins run and the blood was 8.0 although I did have an apple before the run. It’s all very confusing! I shall do more tests from now before and after each exercise to see which one is more effective. Maybe the short core workout didn’t trigger my liver to release sugar but the long run did? Any opinions? Shall I stick to the 7 mins workout after meal and do a long run only occasionally? [/QUOTE]
