training with T1D doesn’t need to be anxiety inducing.

you don’t need to predict or manage every outcome perfectly, you need the experience and a system that gives you confidence to respond to s**t as it changes.

if you’d like some support, comment “1UP” and we’ll get in touch ☝🏽

Kate’s one of my favourite people to coach for reasons that go beyond the numbers.

She was diagnosed with T1D in April this year. Not as a kid, not with years to slowly adjust, but as an adult with a whole life already built around not having this condition. That’s its own kind of hard. There’s no “growing up with it”, no slow adaptation.. you just wake up one day and everything about how you eat, move and live has to change.

Then less than 5 months into this journey, and she’s sitting at 94% time in range for 30 days. Those numbers are HUGE given the timeline.

But honestly, what I’ve loved most is everything outside the numbers. Our chats go way past insulin and carbs, we get onto many topics on wellness, holistic health, all the stuff that actually makes a life feel good, not just “managed.” A lot of the things I personally believe indirectly drive better blood sugar management.

That’s the kind of coaching relationship I look for with every client, and Kate’s been an absolute pleasure to work with.

Proof that there’s no perfect time in your T1D journey to take control, and proof that this work is about a lot more than just number on a screen.

Proud of you Kate. Keen for our catch up Friday 🤣

If you want results like Kate, DM me “START” to enquire about how the 1UP Method could work for you.

“You can’t get in shape with T1D”

“It’s so hard to get in shape with T1D”

Blahblahblah.

Building muscle or losing fat and living with Type 1 Diabetes isn’t impossible.

But to achieve the body you desire, your diabetes management needs to be prioritized FIRST.

And not the other way around.

Your diabetes management must be the linchpin to your cosmetic goals.

Not cosmetic goals the linchpin to improved diabetes management.

Because it just doesn’t work that way.

I had been here for many years before I started taking my Diabetes seriously.

I’d work my fu***ng ass off in the gym and in the kitchen and as soon as I took a day off it’s like my progress went with it.

That’s because Diabetes, when poorly controlled, is a very catabolic condition.

When you’re in a catabolic state, you’re breaking down/losing overall mass, and this includes muscle.

And when it comes to fat loss?

Poor blood sugar control makes the process even harder.

Constant highs/lows affects energy levels, hunger, cravings and your recovery, making it way easier to under eat, over eat or feel too fu**ed to train properly.

If you’re constantly chasing spikes and crashes, how do you expect to stay in a calorie deficit or perform at your best?

So that begs the question.

How did I build my physique despite living with T1D?

All I did was prioritise my diabetes management.

Alongside the other necessary factors that go towards muscle growth…

1️⃣ Eating sufficient protein & calories.
2️⃣ Training hard and training frequently.
3️⃣ Prioritising proper rest & recovery.
4️⃣ Being relentlessly consistent for an undestined amount of time.

Follow this blueprint, and you’ll be in your best shape ever.

Just don’t forget.

Diabetes comes FIRST, muscle growth/fat loss comes SECOND.
