💪 Resistance Training: Most Effective for Glucose Control
Research shows resistance (strength) training is MORE EFFECTIVE than cardio alone for:
- Reducing HbA1c by 0.57-0.8% (vs 0.51-0.6% for cardio)
- Increasing insulin sensitivity by 340% (vs 140% for cardio)
- Building muscle that burns glucose 24/7
