Abstract
OBJECTIVETo determine whether performing a 10-s sprint after moderate-intensity exercise increases the amount of carbohydrate required to maintain euglycemia and prevent late-onset postexercise hypoglycemia relative to moderate-intensity exercise alone.RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODSSeven individuals with type 1 diabetes underwent a hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp and performed 30 min of moderate-intensity exercise on two separate occasions followed by either a 10-s maximal sprint effort or no sprint. During the following 8 h, glucose infusion rate to maintain euglycemia and rates of glucose appearance and disappearance were measured continuously.RESULTSIn response to exercise and throughout the 8-h recovery period, there were no differences in glucose infusion rate, blood glucose levels, plasma insulin concentrations, and rates of glucose appearance and disappearance between the two experimental conditions (P > 0.05).CONCLUSIONSA 10-s sprint performed after 30 min of moderate-intensity exercise does not affect the amount of carbohydrate required to maintain euglycemia postexercise in individuals with type 1 diabetes.
