High after exercise

This week I've decided to put a low carb week together and this has been reflected in my 1 and 2 hours after eating.
On wednesday night I play 5 a side at 21:00 for an hour and get a good sweat going.
My BG 1 hour after I eat and just before I play footie are always less than 7 and when I come back from footie they tend to be 8-9.
Is this what would be considered to be "normal"?
Many thanks

Yep normal to get a BG rise from intense exercise, especially if its got adrenalin like football or any competitive sport. Watch out for lows later.

Are you T2 or T1?
 
Thanks for this. After a soak in the bath BG's tend to be 5.5 - 6.0.
I is a T2 with no meds.
