[QUOTE="GrantGam, post: 1489292, member: 295621"] I agree with what you're saying [USER=211504]@TorqPenderloin[/USER], but that approach is only really suitable for those who are exercising almost every day. As such, on rest days, hyperglycemia may become an issue if your basal dose is fine tuned around a fairly lengthy run. Personally, I set my basal middle ground between exercise days and rest days and opt to top up with carbs. I think this is an easier approach rather the potential headaches and confusion caused by altering basal doses for days off exercising... You are right in what you have said though, but I guess it's ultimately down to the OP's lifestyle and routine. I'm far too sporadic, last minute and unstructured to base my basal profile around exercise days. Oh, and I work on a boat so can't take my bike:) [/QUOTE]
