-the 14-day CGM experiment –
feb 13 - feb 26
continuous glucose monitoring
The food & activity maintaining your healthy blood glucose balance are unique to you.
Why the CGM experiment?
The real-time blood glucose shows your right food & activity.
Clear data can cement best food & activity behavoiur.
Consistent healthy blood glucose balance,
😊 Improves general health,
😊 Lowers inflammation,
😊 Increases enduring athleticism, and,
😊 Supports best metabolic (fat-burning) health – and – maintain ideal weight.
What is the CGM experiment?
🩸 Fix the non-invasive CGM sensor and download the App.
🩸 View the immediate blood glucose response to food, activity, sleeping, and emotional highs & lows.
🩸 Trial choices towards finding the perfect blood glucose balance.
🩸 Consider the CGM experiment a game!
🩸 85% in the healthy BG zone will typically drive best metabolic health.
How does it work?
👍 Choose your food and activity and note the instant response.
👍 Consider the suggested and proven food choices.
👍 If you’re hungry, eat.
👍 If you’re not hungry, don’t eat.
👍 Tinker with food choices, activity type & intensity until you hit your ideal zone.
Ultimately, CGM can show the way towards healthy ketosis
and the favouring of stored fat as the prime energy source.

Are you struggling to kickstart your 23 motor?
Give my time-trial model a crack!
My 30-year obsession with the heart rate capped time-trial.
If you haven't yet hit your normal energetic best in 2023,
💡 Avoid restarting activity at your strenuous high-end effort, regardless.
💡 Cap your returning activity intensity to your aerobic ceiling (see DTI calc below), about 65% of your maximum sustainable effort.
💡 Your conversational effort will reduce nearly all risks of injury, illness and de-motivation.
💡 Your restarting consistent 'easier' effort will build your activity enjoyment, fat-burning energy, and talent.
The TT Game.
✅ Calculate your exercise effort ceiling – ideally in (heart rate) beats per minute – CLICK
✅ Pick an activity.
✅ Design an uninterrupted course.
✅ Race the course but do not exceed your effort ceiling.
✅ Record your finishing time.
✅ Note your faster TT after your 6th test (see below).
Here’s my 2023 kickstarter TT.
Activity: Mountain Bike (see the course)
HR Ceiling: 141 beats per minute.
My Focus:
❥ Police my HR ceiling,
❥ Practice improved skills
❥ Control & relax breathing, particularly on recovery
❥ Hydrate fittingly.

Exercise: the #1 blood glucose ally!
🔹 According to the data, the highest overall health is produced by stable blood glucose levels between 4.5 and 5.8 mmol/L.
🔹 Ailment is indicated by persistent rises above this healthy zone.
🔹Maintaining the appropriate blood glucose balance involves eating fresh produce, which includes a range of veggies, protein (animal and vegetable), and good, balanced dietary fat.
🔹The biggest dangers to blood sugar equilibrium are refined sugar, processed starchy carbs, and highly processed dietary fat.
Therefore, don’t eat food that disrupts the ideal blood glucose balance!
It sounds simple enough!
However,
Many people may find it nearly impossible given exposure, accessibility, synthetic flavouring, low cost, and alluring marketing.
Enter: Exercise.
💪 Most exercise will lower and maintain ideal blood glucose.
💪 Longer & easier rhythmic activity is best to maintain daily BG balance.
💪 Harder efforts can lower higher glucose, a result of recent dietary carbs.
💪 Most resistance training (lifting – body or loads) will dramatically lower raised BG.
