Hello Adriana,

Unfortunately, it will depend on the type of exercise, duration, moment of the day and of course the person.It is best to try yourself.For example, start at a safe value between 120 or 140 and see how the body reacts to that activity.

Also keep in mind that a high intensity sport for a type 1 diabetic can produce glucogenolysis (glucose release by the liver) that some cases are corrected alone or must be corrected with rapid insulin.A medium/low intensity sport is usually hypoglycemic so it is convenient to monitor the glymatical values ​​previously or during whether the activity goes beyond the time.

The difficult thing is that sometimes we do mixed sports.In my case, I can start bike being "hypoglycemic" but when you upload a port and climb the pulsations it becomes "hyperglycemic."

I recommend this PDF of Serafín Murillo where he explains in detail how the sport can affect us.

All the best,

Good, what @josemibi has told you is perfect.

For me the ideal, whatever exercise is 150.You have margin on both sides and you know you see little by little because as you acquire adhesion to that exercise, it will lower you or climb less since the body adapts.

@adrianasanz

Start at the levels that Josemibi tells you.To do sports it is very highly recommended to have a sensor.Avoid many hypos.Go to sports especially at the beginning with glucose, caramelos, sugar, whatever you want but that at least cover about two rations of carbohydrates to avoid scares.If you don't use it better.But the sensor is I would say that essential especially at the beginning.Remember that in reverse, if you are very high of blood glucose, above 250, it is not recommended that you do sports, except that you already know your body very well.At first be careful, you can cause ketoacedosis.

But do sports, the more the better.Sport will help you a lot to reduce and control insulin.I know you will think, but life with diabetes!Yes, at first.Then you learn and you will see many benefits.For a person with diabetes, sport, walking, moving is very important.Ahh and regularity is very important in our case.

All the best

Completely.It helped me a lot to go to the gym regularly.
Since the Psado year I am not going and this year I have felt more the lack of gymnastics, sport, movement.

As it had the best glycosilada, within the recommended values.
But it demotivates myself and returning costs me a lot.Without a doubt, it is seen in three months or four months how good the exercise does the exercise.

I have started my exercise routine again, including weights and cardio around an hour and a half.And it goes better than I expected, although with some scare because I have no sensor, and I measure myself with the glucometer a before and after, taking an ounce of chocolate without sugar every 20 minutes.I start the routine with 150 and end over the 80s.
