[QUOTE="IZ THE LEG END, post: 1134869, member: 195751"] Hey, apologies I'm currently in Saudi with work so internet is hit and miss. I monitor my bloods regularly during and after exercise and react accordingly to my levels... Depending on intensity, distance, ambient temperature and even my hydration levels I find play a huge part on how well my BG levels are maintained. I always carry gels, sweets etc whilst running... I aim to elevate my BG to around 7-9 I prefer closer to 9 and then take control of it dropping over the first couple of km's... Afterwards I will monitor my bloods, if say I've been in a 10k race I may have used a gel and over compensated to which once I stop running my sugars would increase... If I'm the opposite I just correct it slowly using small sweets such as jelly babies... Adrenaline etc can play funny games I find with BG levels and can be confused (for me anyway) with the sensations associated with a hypo. After training I always drink a pure protein I use USN in the UK or GNC when in Saudi seems to have a very low carb content and is great for muscle repair... My general diet plan at present is as follows: [IMG]http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160423/06ce0fe55142c9a22186fd28bbe83767.jpg[/IMG] Hope this is what your looking for and was some help... Thing is you need to work out what works best for you as something that works for one may not for the next person... LC and training are very difficult to mix but don't let it deter you will find the balance Good luck Izzy [/QUOTE]
