My Rest Week Training

 My Rest Week TrainingMy rest week training looks like this… On Monday I got up at 5:30am with a BG of 9.8mmols which is unusual for me because I am usually within range. Anyway, I took a correction and a bolus for my overnight oats and coffee (32 carbs) and then I cycled to the gym whilst the sun was rising. At the gym I completed a 45 minute chest and arms workout. I then cycled back home to find my BG was 14mmols. Now, I know weight training raises bg but that takes the biscuit. Antoher correction please…

On Tuesday I woke up at 6:15am with another high BG of 9.1mmols. Again, this is unusual so I decided that I would change my site straight after my workout at the gym which focused on back and biceps. BG went up to 11.9mmols in 45 minutes even though I had increased my basal and had a small bolus. I got back home and changed the site, corrected, did 30 minutes of yoga and I was back down to 6.8mmols. Relief.

Ahh, Wednesday… A fresh new site resulted in a 6.9mmols morning BG. Sometimes it’s something as simple as changing the site. Here is my training for the week. Since I am on spring break I am not dancing as much so that is why I am going to the gym.
