The Symphony of Muscle and Sugar: Unveiling the Role of GLUT4 in Our Body's Energy Dance

Resistance training turns our muscle cells into glucose-hoarding powerhouses. It boosts the number and efficiency of GLUT4 transporters, making our muscles more adept at managing glucose levels independently of insulin. This is a game-changer, especially for those with insulin sensitivity issues. This means that when you exercise, your cells will pull in glucose that’s floating in the bloodstream WITHOUT the presence of insulin. This is huge!
