An active lifestyle incorporating lighter weights (with more repetitions) will help you to develop and maintain general good health.
When you start make sure do some low-impact walking for about 10 minutes to allow your heart to gently adjust to the activity.
Make sure you drink water regularly to avoid becoming dehydrated as you increase your activity levels. Try not to go out during the hottest/coldest times of the day and be sure to rest when you need to.
Once you have warmed up, try exercises such as power-walking, jogging or hiking to get a good, steady work out without overloading your heart.
You don’t have to engage in vigorous activity to enjoy the benefits of exercise. Riding an exercise bike or using an elliptical machine or treadmill are also safe workouts for people with diabetes.
