[QUOTE="Westley, post: 1517044, member: 254425"] Firstly, congratulations on your new gains, that's some great early progress. It does take a while to adjust BG management to regular heavy training, but once you do I find it is actually a big help in keeping my levels good. It might be a changed metabolic rate like you say, but I'd guess a lot of it is simply the prolonged effect of recovery. I think I remember reading that muscle repair and glycogen replenishment can continue for as much as 48 hours after intense training. I certainly notice the difference in my sugar levels/insulin requirements the night after a day when I've moved a lot of weight, even if I train in the morning. [/QUOTE]
