Muscle development can I?

Good to all,

I wanted to tell you something about muscle development and see what you think/recommend.

I have been db 1 for 6 years, before that my weight used to be about 65-69 kg (with my height of 1.69) and my physical shape was a little muscular and very fibrous. Apart my intention was to enter the bodyof firefighters and performed muscle development exercises in the gym and aerobics, to maintain the good physical form and be as healthy as possible.

As is logical and due to the DB, my weight fell, but with the efficient effort I got stabilized between 61-63 kg, for much of the intermediate 4 years.

This last year, my weight has been slightly reduced and I usually range in weight in a very frequent way, becoming at about 55kg of minimum and about 61kg of maximum. As an example I tell you, today Sep 21. My weight is in 58kgAnd more or less 8 days ago I was in 62kg. I have not varied my diet or insulin supply, so I don't know what really happens to me.

This creates a bad being, sadness and huge discouragement.Above all, I consider being as healthy as possible is the main thing, but seeing how my physical appearance is degraded exponentially also affects me.

Talking with friends and informing me with gyms in gyms, nothing has fixed me, everyone tells me that I will not get an attractive appearance like before, yet and everything having the DB more than controlled.

So what I want to know is, if this has a certain authoritarian truth or on the contrary it turns out to be false, my question is that I do not want to invest money in something that will not do any good (it will not get worse), makingWeight exercises forcing the muscles and I have to settle for aerobic exercise to just maintain more or less stable blood glucose figures.

I look at my mirror every day and my body seems skeletal and my face is that of a drug addict and that creates an evil and impressive unhappiness.

Thanks for paying my attention.

Hi, Jorge.

I think there are two different things here.One is to decide what type of exercise is the most suitable for a person with diabetes, and another, very different, if a diabetic can do, for example, weights.

First, the one who tells you that, being diabetic, you are already condemned to not have a healthy and attractive appearance is false of all falsehood.Diabetes, unless it is poorly controlled, does not prevent a good physical form.

I recommend that you do not trust friends or gym classmates and that you go to a good doctor, if possible, a specialist in sports medicine and that, together with the indications of your endo, they program the most appropriate exercise for your goals,Without neglecting your diabetes.

Much encouragement and greetings.

Hi Jorge:
I totally agree with Alea. It is not normal for you to have such fast weight changes.When I was diagnosed, I had been in the gym for many years, I lost weight, I lost all the muscle mass but as soon as I stabilized the glycemia I recovered the weight and muscle mass.Now I stay doing sports almost every day although I stopped going to the gym.
I do not think the weights harm you, but the first thing you will have to do is what happens to lose so much weight.How is your glycosylated hemoglobin ???

Greetings

Thanks Alea and Prado for your answers, I will look more carefully at the issue of weight, along with my endo's opinion and I will look for a coach who has some experience in the matter with diabetics.

Hello Jorge!I am new in this forum.After my debut, I asked my endocrine if I could do weights and replied that I could do what I want.I practice all kinds of sports (soccer, swimming, mountain bike, running, etc.) and I combine it with musculation.I hope my answer helps you.

See you later!!!!

hello!
Jorge you can do everything you want, whenever you carry good control.

Do you have vision problems?I say it, because I am mine and the ophthalmologo advised me not to do risk sports or with many efforts, because being mine, my retina is more "weak" and in the long run it is more likely to find my retina damaged ....
Now I play softer sports, spinning, aerobic ..

But if you are well, you don't have to stop doing weights or what you like, ok?

ALL THE BEST!

Of first apologies for the late response, this of not having had PC has been the fault.

Thanks for the answers, now it seems that I am keeping more in the weight of echo I have increased and I started in a gym in which luckily one of the monitors is diabetic and helps me a lot.

I repeat it, thanks for the ineterés.

I am very happy to know that Jorge .... I understand that you have type one diabetes, what I would like to tell you is that you never lose hope, diabetes 1 are controlling it with Isulina surely, when exercising you will lower the dose of insulin, treatTo do hiit exercises like tabata those help you burn sugar, I encourage friend

I am DM1 and win 20 kg of dough after debuting.If possible!

I want to return to the gym too, I had a very good muscle mass now use bomb a month ago and I am in the process of struggling the basal, but my intention is to return again and exercise both anaerobic and aerobic
