- Not much I'm easy going :D
I’ve done the P90x course which is a 3month intense workout. I plan on doing this again in January 2011. I also go to the gym and work on all my muscle groups. I particularly like going on the treadmill with my iPod on and go into my own little world. I do 40 minutes on the treadmill at a speed of 5-6 depending on how my lungs are feeling.
I let my sugars run high before I workout around 18.0mmol/l after my workout they come down to around 5mmol/l working out doing exercises will make your sugar drop quite a bit, so it’s VERY important to keep an eye on them whilst exercising. When at the gym I always have a bottle of lucozade that sits on the shelf as a life-line just in case my sugars were to drop low. I’ve never really needed to use it but having it with me keeps my mind at rest.
I'm having a rest over Christmas to try an put on some weight. I'll be back working out in Jan, plus I don't think my physio would be pleased if I stopped :mrgreen:
