Type II diabetes

[DannyBoy10]

Hello, I got diagnosed with Type II diabetes approximately 3 years ago and immediately got started with exercise. generally speaking my exercise has been kept up-to-date but over the years my enthusiasm for it has dropped off from time to time. And I’m currently at the end of a four month period where I have not done any exercise at all. I’ve started now with a personal trainer once per week and also I’ve started with the Couch to 5K app. Running is one of the most difficult things I’ve done, it’s daunting and quite a frightening form of exercise to get stuck into. Anyway wish me luck I’ve literally only just started and the first training with Michael Johnson went off really well. I’d be keen to hear from other people who got started and what your experience has been like. Thanks
