Great advice @bjrose I find eating low GI foods an hour or two before the gym prevents drastic changes in BG.
When I used to swim train for 1.5hrs at a time I would drink 700mls of powerade to avoid low BG worked a charm. Now I gym roughly 45mins at a time find powerade unnecessary. I'm 22yrs old BTW
i have a question of my own. I've been going to the gym 5/6times a week this year and during the past month I have been consuming lots if carbs to try an put on weight and as a result I've been injecting a lot more novorapid. Wondering if my insulin sensitivity would have changed as I have noticed my BG have been on the high side this month (after having my best HbA1c this year 6.9 or 53mmol/mol in July) wondering if any type 1's out there have any experience with trying to increase muscle mass
I inject Lantus twice a day and carb count my meals and use novorapid accordingly
