Episode Description from the Publisher

We break down why exercise can be one of the most challenging parts of living with type 1 diabetes. We dive into how different types of workouts affect blood sugar, how to prevent highs and lows during exercise, and how to use insulin pumps, CGMs, and diabetes technology more effectively while staying active. Gary shares practical strategies for adjusting insulin, timing carbs, using exercise mode, and preparing for cardio, weightlifting, endurance training, and sports. We also talk about the fear of hypoglycemia during workouts, why blood sugars can spike or crash unexpectedly, and how to build more confidence and consistency with exercise and diabetes management.   Learn about the Eversense 365 CGM   Learn about Omnipod 5 (today's sponsor)*   Integrated Diabetes - work with Gary and his team   Send in YOUR questions about  Hypoglycemia   T1D Exchange Registry   Gary's Exercise Handout   Join the Diabetech Newsletter   Follow Diabetech: Instagram | Tik Tok | YouTube | Facebook | Threads   DISCLAIMER: This podcast is not medical advice and is for educational purposes only.
