Move, play, or simply stay active: Exercise with type 1 diabetes.

How exercising with type 1 diabetes can become easier

Staying active is key to overall health. Exercise boosts insulin sensitivity and supports both your body and mind. Just 30 minutes of structured movement a day can significantly improve your time in range.[1] But with type 1 diabetes, working out isn’t always simple.

Glucose levels can behave unpredictably depending on the type of activity, the time of day, what you’ve eaten, your stress level, your hormones and even how much insulin is active in your body. Whether you’re into cardio, team sports, or just trying to walk more each day, a personalised and optimal glucose management is important for added safety and flexibility. myLoop powered by CamAPS FX can help you build the confidence to start and keep up your exercise routine.

How myLoop can support your physical activity

The Automated Insulin Delivery (AID) system myLoop is made up of three key elements that communicate with each other: a Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) system, the YpsoPump insulin pump, and the mylife CamAPS FX, an app-based algorithm from CamDiab. mylife Loop powered by mylife CamAPS FX offers a range of features specifically useful when you want to be active. Unlike multiple daily injections (MDI), you don’t have to time things so rigidly. If your gym session gets pushed back or you end up staying longer than expected, mylife Loop powered by mylife CamAPS FX adjusts - giving you more control and spontaneity.

A customisable personal glucose target

With mylife Loop, you can manually adjust your personal glucose target (PGT) to keep glucose levels at your desired target before, during and after exercise. mylife Loop powered by mylife CamAPS FX is the only AID system to provide highly personalised glucose targets from 4.4 - 11 mmol/L (80 - 198 mg/dL).

«Ease-off» and «Boost» modes

Worried about your glucose tanking? Switching on the «Ease-off» mode during exercise temporarily raises your personal glucose target (PGT) and suspends insulin delivery earlier than normal, if your glucose levels are predicted to fall below target.

Are you into High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) or weightlifting? The «Boost» -mode comes in handy during anaerobic activity or sport competitions, when you need the algorithm to bring your glucose levels down more quickly, especially in times when your glucose levels could rise and remain high.

Do you know what's also special about «Ease-off» and «Boost» modes? When you use these features, your algorithm's learning process is suspended. This means that the hourly insulin requirement it has learned remains unaffected – no surprise the next day.

Kids are bundle of energy, adults hit the dance floor or the gym, and later in life you may just want to stay mobile enough to enjoy trips, hobbies, or grandkids. No matter your age, physical activity impacts your glucose levels and helps you feeling good day to day.

mylife Loop let's kids be kids.

A child’s day is often unpredictable, and that can have an impact on glucose levels. Any type of physical activity, from playing hide-and-seek to running into your parents' arms when school finishes, can make you more insulin-sensitive, not only during the activity itself, but potentially for hours afterwards.

Between school timetables, playdates, and everything else, kids just want to be free without needing a plan every time. mylife Loop powered by mylife CamAPS FX, gives families the freedom to be more spontaneous – because kids are active by nature.

Exercise with type 1 diabetes shouldn’t be a math problem

Glucose levels can shift fast - just like the pace of teenage life. Any kind of movement, whether it’s running to class, dancing, or just messing around with friends, can make your body react to insulin more strongly, sometimes long after you’ve stopped.

Whatever they’re into, teens are figuring out who they are; and how to manage everything that comes with growing up, including the ups and downs of type 1 diabetes. Hormones, moods, energy levels – it’s a lot. mylife Loop powered by the mylife CamAPS FX, helps lighten that load – giving teenagers more freedom and confidence to manage their diabetes independently.
