DIABETES & BODYBUILDING

DIABETES & BODYBUILDING

There are two types of Diabetes:

Type I Diabetes:

Type 1 Diabetes is purely Genetic, that is it is caused due to genes inherited from parents.

Type II Diabetes:

Type 2 Diabetes is caused by many years of diet abuse, substance abuse, living a careless and sedentary lifestyle, being obese.

Type II runs in families so some are more
susceptible.

Diabetes is a silent killer like high blood pressure.

Bodybuilding is important in reducing this risk because increased muscle mass from resistance training increases the need for glycogen uptake in the muscles. Therefore they will need to use the extra glucose for reserves in energy in resistance training. Diabetes also increases your insulin sensitivity. Diabetes is insulin tolerance and therefore your body doesn’t react to massive amounts of insulin and store it in the glycogen like it should. By exercising you are counteracting the effect of diabetes and the insulin receptors to work at the “normal” level.

A bodybuilder with diabetes or risk of developing diabetes should focus most of his daily carbs around slow digesting carbs. Some examples of alternative carbs to use are: whole wheat pasta, oatmeal, oat bran, whole grain bread, etc
