“Competitors take bad breaks and use them to drive
themselves. Quitters take bad breaks and use them
as a reason to give up. Which are you?-” Nancy Lopez
Control your blood sugar when short
on time
Lower your blood sugar with some “exercise
snacking” (short intervals on hilly terrain), before you eat. Research participants who did six
one-minute, intense-incline walking intervals 30
minutes before breakfast saw a 17 percent less
high level in post-meal blood sugar compared to
those who didn’t exercise. They also saw a 13
percent less high level compared to those who
did a continuous 30-minute workout. Quick
bursts of activity are a great way for timecrunched people to fit in some exercise and keep
blood sugar levels in check.
