[QUOTE="Deleted Account, post: 2045869"] Exercise is very personal and depends on the type of exercise. For example, if you do a lot of walking, it is unlikely to have any impact on BG. Whereas, running may reduce BG unless you are so running fit that you run a marathon most days. Typically, stop-start exercise like HIIT (note: most team sports are stop start unless you are involved all the time) or resistance training like weights or "stressful" exercise like cycling uphill against the wind in the rain will increase BG. The reason for this is there are two diabetes things which are affected by exercise: - insulin sensitivity/effectiveness. This can take some time to take affect and depends on your fitness at that type of exercise. This is why walking may have little impact and why start-start exercise can have little impact but a 30 minute run may reduce BG. - glucose release. Our liver will release glucose to give us the energy needed for the exercise. This may lead to a rise in BG during some exercise but a drop later as our liver rebuilds its stores. [/QUOTE]
