[QUOTE="phoenix, post: 232679, member: 12578"] Daisy, I would stop and test when this happens It actually depends on the type of activity you are doing .Aerobic activity ie running at about 60-70% heart rate is more likely to lower glucose levels. The cells can untilise glucose very efficiently during this type of exercise. If on the other hand, your training session includes sprints or fast interval training then you release hormones that cause your liver to release needed glucose. If this counteregulatory system isn't working effciently it can cause too much to be released causing a sharp rise in levels. If you are low after exercise then if you don't refuel then the counter regularatory system will provide the needed glucose... and may provide too much. The refueling doesn't require a large meal, just a small snack containing a few carbs and protein. [/QUOTE]
