Wits & Weights | Fat Loss, Nutrition, & Strength Training for Lifters

The #1 Habit for Blood Sugar Control and Insulin Resistance | Bonus


Listen Later

Discover the most powerful daily habit for blood sugar control that most people completely overlook.

In this bonus episode, I'm sharing my recent conversation with Ben Tzeel from the Your Diabetes Insider podcast, where we nerd out on the surprising connection between strength training and metabolic health.

Main Takeaways:

  • Why resistance training beats cardio for blood sugar control and insulin sensitivity
  • The shocking 25-point blood sugar difference from just one week without lifting
  • How to overcome gym intimidation and start strength training safely
  • The 2-minute movement "snacks" that increase muscle protein synthesis by 47%
  • Efficient training protocols that deliver results in 30-45 minutes, 3 days per week
  • Why compound movements like squats and deadlifts are metabolic game-changers
