wow. sounds great Harry! sounds like you got it down just fine. Main thing

is eating a glucose tab or 2 prior to exercising. I'd also recommend to

exercise 4 hours past your last dose of humalog so you know it is out of

your body and wont' crank your sugar low.

Situps:

Like pushups there different kinds of situps. I practice the kind of situp

that puts the least pressure on the lower back, xince I have low back

problems, having had back surgery many years ago.

Do not put the hands behind the head, which is the old fashion type of

situp, which puts lots of pressure on the lower back when you do them.

Instead place your hands cross way on your front chest. You do not have to

lay flat of your back on the down stroke of the situp either. In fact it is

best to just go about half way on the downstroke of the situp. After all

you want to tense the stomach muscles and have the resistance there. So

place your feet under a stableholder, where the toes are under it and the

knees are up and the feet are flat on the floor. If you do floor exercises

with a partner, then the partner can hold your feet down while you do

situps.

Do your situps in sets. I do a set of 50 situps, then a set of 40 and then

a set of 20 at last try. Remember to rest between sets of situps until you

feel like doing another set. Repeating the sets of repetitions is the way

to go, even if you have to start with a set of 1, and later increaxse it to

a set of 2 or more. This way you get a good stomach burn, which means the

stomach muscles have been stressed, so now it it time to wait a couple of

days or so for the soreness in the muscles to go away. If your stomach

muscles are not sore the day after you do these situps, then I think you

have not done enough of them.

Some people call these situps stomach crunches, but the idea is the same.

Remember feet flat on the floor and the knees up. For those not able to do

this, then sit on a bench and lean backwards, but don't fall backwards.

When you have gone as far back as you can without falling, hold it for a few

seconds and sit up slowly.

Repeat these seveeral times. Pretty soon you will be able to do normal

regular situps like other folks.

Doing an exercise super slow is the way to go to build strength, and the

other advantage of doing them superslow is you are not likely to hurt

yourself either.

have lots of fun Harry! I am certain you will do fine on the cruise with eating

good. If you treat yourself to a carb, just get the carb grams off the

chef/kitchen and if they don't have them, don't eat it, find a treat that they

have the carb grams for and then tack on about 5 extra units on top of your

normal dose of humalog to cover the treat. However, you must get checked 2 hours

past eating since you are essentially over dosing slightly on humalog and run

the risk of passing out.

In other words, when eating a carb infested treat, having slightly to much

humalog in your body is better than not enough and going high but you have to

catch the 2 hour low sugar and counter-act it with a glucose tablet or you'll

pass out.

LOL. I don't recommend this for novice diabetics just learning to carb count and

dose insulin, you'll quickly wind up in the hospital in an insulin coma. Harry

knows how to properly calculate his 15 grams with units of humalog so he may

want to try this. Knowing Harry though, he will not try it but hey Harry, if you

do decide to on the cruise, now you know.

For example, try to find a treat that is around 30 to 38 grams of carbs but no

more. In your case, that would be about 20 units normally to cover it, tag on an

extra 5 so now you are at 25 units of H to eat about a 30 to 38 gram carb

infested treat. That should do it. Just remember to check 2 hours past eating to

catch the potential low with a glucose tablet or two.

I do this routine occasionally since my sweet tooth likes to eat an occasional

treat *wink*

Yes, I have used bungi cord a long time ago. I used it to tie down some

things in back of a truck. It is a cord that stretches.

I have also seen some devices for resistant training that used bungi cords

to apply resistance.

So Harry for sure it is important really important to cool it. I always

have heard that and do come to a very gradual stop. Start the same way

with warm ups.

Rita and thank you for this reminder Harry.

I just did the treadmill walk, and the first ten minutes of the walk were

slow, but okay, and the next 10-20 minutes caused me to break a sweat, which

was normal. After 22 minutes of walking at 3.0 miles per hour, I increased

my speed to 3.2 miles per hour.

At the thirty minute mark I increased my speed to 3.4 miles per hour and

began reducing my speed at 35 minutes of walking back to 3.2, for a minute

then to 3.0mph for another minute then finished off at around 2.8 mph.

I had a good sweat and felt good. My glucose level after the walk was 63,

so I ate some nuts.

I believe you are talking about isometrics. I use some isometric exercises,

but I prefer to do situps, pushups and knee bends and some toe raises along

with some stretches before and after exercising. I usually do resistance

training on a day seperate from doing aerobic exercises like walking or

cycling.

It is best for diabetics and nondiabetics to build some muscle mass through

anaerobic exercising like pushups, situps and weight lifting, if one has the

equipment.

To lose weight it would also be good to build muscle mass. While this will

cause some weight loss, it may be slow, but it will cause the body to firm

up glucose and fat and especially provide the diabetic with more tissue to

burn off glucose, which can be converted to fat unless one does not exercise

regularly.

If you are fat, I believe it would be most helpful for you to get into a

body building mode and develop muscle. Since I have a " bad " , not so good

heart, I things doing it slowly at first and try to increase my endurance

and strength gradually. One can easily build muscle mass by following Dr.

Mirkin's advice on resistance training. I wish I could afford a gym and a

nautalis weight lifting machine and a personal trainer, but at present I

will just stick to doing some basic muscle building with situps, pushups,

knee bends, .etc. We all can do these things by remembering the ERR rules,

exersion, rest and recovery. Resistance training has to be strenuous in

order to build muscle. No pain no gain is still the rule. Just do it

gradually and in a few weeks you and others will notice a big difference, as

I did, in my strength and endurance ability.

Before I started resistance training I did not have any biceps to speak of,

and today I definitely have some biceps, which are getting more defined and

bigger as I continue to do this type of training.

Thank you Harry for this explanation. It does make sense.

I am at the stretching and gentle moves stage though as I am a bit weak

and can hardly get started for many many reasons. Some physical and some

emotional.

Time is what I think I'll need. Sigh. Sleepy now.

I see what you mean. In any event the key to getting stronger and better is

persistence toward your goal.

Ah yes persistence. Well I guess that is based on making whatever a way

of life and not just a temporary state.

Rita who dog gone it is still sleepy after a whole night's sleep. Of

cousre no way did I sleep straight through. Haven't in years.

Is there a sleep problems list? Is there one also for the blind?

There is a little known sleep reaction that is rarely talked about to

others, even the professionals in the field. It is called paradoxical sleep

reaction. It happens to those who sleep for more than nine hours

continuously, if it happens at all.

It is called paradoxical sleep reaction, since those who experience it also

complain that they feel sleepy; like they have not had a good night's sleep.

Even though it can happen to those who get fewer hours of continuous sleep,

it rarely happens to those who sleep eight hours or less continuously.

Yes Harry would you please help with this. I'd like a list and not just

an article. I like and need and enjoy the back and forthness of a list.

If you would could you give me the exact address to type in and not just

the http info. Can't do that.

Thank you for your time.

has given me a few addresses for excellent topics

other than sleep. This is such a caring list. I feel as though I now

have lots of brothers and sisters. Smile.
