Hi all! Hoping for some advice, I've Googled this but can't find any info about how to counteract this! Hope you can help!
I've recently taken up kick-boxing (just the work-out, not fighting), and it's really intense and I'm really enjoying it! But after every session, my sugar levels sky rocket! I played football until recently, and I follow the same post-workout routine (food, protein, etc), but my levels are always way higher. Straight after the session, it was 17, 1 hour later, it was 23, another hour later it was 27! Is this normal, and is there a way to stop this??? I really don't want to quit! (I'm type 1, 31 years old, on insulin pump which I take off during session) Hope you can help!!!
