Workout Routine
My regular workouts are cardio and weights. For me, I don't do any modification for weights and have no issues. For cardio, I cut off my basal 2 hours before working out. I try to target a starting BG of 140-160. Basal is off through the whole workout. I test every 15 minutes (usually working out 60 minutes on an eliptical or stair master). If I go below 100, I'll take on 22g of carbs via Gatorade.
The routine works in general, but I always go high the hour after I work out. I'm thinking I need to turn on my basal toward the end of the workout to start balancing out again.
Any comments or suggestions? Also thought it might help y'all refine your own workouts or give folks confidence to start their own. Comments appreciated.
