Lifting Without Fear - How Strength Training Steadies Your Blood Sugar

Lifting weights and managing blood sugars? Yes, they totally go together. In this episode, I’m hanging out with strength coach and former engineer Philip Pape to talk about how resistance training can totally transform your blood sugars - and your confidence. We cover everything from where to start if the gym freaks you out, to why compound lifts give you the biggest bang for your buck, to how just a couple sessions a week can make a major difference with diabetes. If you've been on the fence about lifting, this is your sign to give it a shot - with guidance, support, and maybe even a few laughs along the way.   Listen to Wits & Weights episodes right here: https://podcast.witsandweights.com/1870546/episodes?search=true Loved this episode?
