Hi johnny.
Sounds like you've got a great exercise regime to me. Good for you :thumbsup:

I probably average an hour and a half of planned exercise daily. My work out of choice is Pilates, which I do in the mornings. At least twice a week I like to do some Kickboxing to add some high intensity cardio. And in the evenings I walk my dog for about an hour and a half (although lately I haven't been doing this as often due to a telephone bug ;) ).
I have been playing around with the idea of jogging in the mornings, but I have a history of shin splints.

Not only is exercise great for BG's, relieving stress, maintaining/losing weight, gaining muscle, and energizing a person, it also works wonders on one's sex drive! :D :p :-

hmmmmm...yet another reason for you (and your significant other) to exercise!

[am1977]

I generally exercise about an hour a day usually at the gym on the treadmill or using an eliptical machine. I'd like to find more time to exercise but either I am too tired or just don't feel like it or just don't have any time to. I know it really helps me relieve tension and stress and it also helps my blood sugar.

hi shalyndria when i go out and take a walk..it's amazing how many women i see out there jogging..some power walking..far more women i see excersizing then men... me being a man can't tell about the wonder's it does for a woman..but i'll take your word on it...:thumbsup:

I excercie on the treadmill or walk for about 30-45 min 5-6 days a week. I also do pilates several times a week to tone up those flubby areas!

[MarkMunday]

Good to see that your are all so enthusiastic about exercise!

I walk for 25 minutes every day. I miss doing it on weekends if I am active doing other things. The important thing is to keep the metabolic rate elevated permanently by doing some exercise every day.

Cheers,

Mark

I attempt 5 times a week. 3 being at curves getting that heart rate going and the other is walking outside for 2-3 miles.


SHY!!!!! phone bug? ROTFLMAO

[Eri's mom]

Eri exercises daily...w/ PE and then usually w/ swimming...plus soccer starts soon, so she'll be REALLY keeping up the exercising then.(then again, she is 11, so she has a TON of energy...lol)

I use the treadmill 20 minutes a day and fast dance 20
minutes a day, 5 days a week. My Hubbie and I or Daughter
walk around the block usually twice a week. My joints some-
times hate me for it. Oh Hubbie and I usually go motorcycling
twice a week also, weather permiting. :-
***Carlie***:) :whistling

[johnnylol]

[jacobsam622]

Who has time for exercising. My wife will be giving birth to twins in a little over three weeks.:cool:

[lgvincent]

I try to exercise every day but sometimes the weather keeps me from it.

[Willow]

Aah Jacobsam622 congratulations :)

[KickStart101]

" motorcycling ain't excersize" :(

Sure it is Johnny!! It gets my blood rushing, my heart
pumping, I'm screaming at the top of my lungs while I'm
pounding on Hubbie's back cuz he's driving like a maniac just
to get me going. Driving on a 'cycle while holding an umbrella. Interesting concept....nah that would look stupid. We do have
the helmets and rainsuits. We don't usually drive it in the rain.
LOL. I know you were talking about walking...there are always
at least 3 or 4 nice days or evenings to take a walk.
***Carlie***:)

[KickStart101]

P.S. Don't worry he's an excellent driver, he just loves to
bug me once in a while. :) :rolleyes:
***Carlie*** :)

[johnnylol]

i guess when he takes you for a ride.. he really does carlie LOL...good to see everyone has a active lifestyle...

[batzilla]

I ride an exercise bike for an hour a day 6 days a week and do weight training 3-4 times a week. This week i'm gonna trow meditation and yoga in the mix and kiss my diabetes goodbye:D

[JHogan]

Does anyone have major issues with their sugar level dropping when exercising? I literally will drop over 200 with 5+ miles. Even less on the milage sometimes. And it's not like I have taken any insulin either for hours and hours. It drives me nuts. I don't want to start off on the high side cause I feel like ****, yet if I don't, I am 30 before I know it.

[leking]

i play football (thats soccer for you americans) alot. 4 games (one of which is 5-a-side) and 2 3hour training sessions a week.

i can't stress how good exercise is for people, and forget about diabetes for a minute, everyone should find time for exercise in their week.
