Today I decided to get back to my usual morning workout routine. Since I’m working from home, I decided to do some experimenting with timing. When I woke up, my BGs were a bit high from the dawn phenomenon so I decided I would ride until they came down. That took about 10 minutes of easy/moderate biking, which seems to drop my BGs very quickly. On a normal day, after my morning workout, I would be rushing around the house getting ready for work and the dawn phenomenon would be spiking my BGs back up. Today, I let that spike happen and then I got back on the bike to finish my ride instead of correcting with insulin. Overall, it worked pretty well! It helps to have some additional flexibility!
My oura ring is telling me I’m slacking…
Can’t have that! Today may be a double workout kind of day!
