Show Notes
- Remember that managing blood glucose around exercise is a balancing act of training, nutrition, and stress. Sam’s work shows how factors like adrenaline, carbohydrate timing, and insulin sensitivity all shape glucose responses before, during, and after workouts. If you’re an athlete with type 1 diabetes, plan around those variables — a good cooldown or strategic carb intake post-session can make recovery smoother and prevent overnight lows.
- Use tech to simplify, not complicate. Continuous glucose monitors, wearables, and even AI tools like EnhanceD can help interpret the chaos of data and turn it into actionable insights. Whether you’re a competitive cyclist, weekend warrior, or coach, pairing physiological understanding with smart tech can transform how you train, recover, and fuel for performance and long-term health.
