20 Min Walking Workout | Exercise to Lower Blood Sugar

Try this exercise to lower blood sugar quickly. This 20 Minute Walking Workout to Lower Blood Sugar is designed to be accessible and effective for individuals with prediabetes or diabetes. Always consult your doctor before starting any exercise program, especially if you have an existing medical condition.

Prediabetes is a critical stage where blood sugar levels are higher than usual but haven't yet escalated to Type 2 diabetes. If you've received a prediabetes diagnosis, it's a wake-up call to take action and prevent the onset of diabetes. The good news is that there are steps you can take to reduce your diabetes risk significantly. Exercise, particularly HIIT workouts, has been shown to significantly lower blood sugar levels, according to health experts.

Our Walking HIIT routine combines brisk walking with short bursts of high-intensity exercises. This not only helps lower your blood sugar levels but also improves your cardiovascular fitness and muscular strength. In this 20 minute Walking HIIT, we’ll do 6 sets of 6 exercises and will take away an exercise after each round so the last round only has 1 exercise! You’ll rack up about 2400 steps!

I love this workout exercise video because it is easy peasy and I am 48 years old. My son checked my sugar level and told me that I am prediabetic so i start to follow your exercise daily 😊❤

[LynnSkupeko]

This was a fun one! I love April's little sound effects and Aiko's funny comments (fly swatting!). :) . Thanks so much!!

I just discovered your channel and did a workout from 6 months ago. I love seeing your mother doing the workouts with you. I am a 75 year old lady who is recovering from knee replacement last year and need to get strong and fit!! I am struggling with being able to get up easily from the floor and hope to one day being able to sit on the floor and not struggle to get upright!!

A new favorite! This HIIT workout has easy peasy moves that allowed me to go a little faster. Next time, I plan to try this with 1 lb weighted gloves. I loved the format: removing a move in each round. This workout is so fun that it's over before you know it. Highly recommend! I'm pre-diabetic, so I'll def do this often...at least 2x per week with a longer HIIT workout on the weekend. I clocked 235 calories + 2, 108 steps. Thank you for making HIIT workouts so doable! 😊

I'm in my 30s. I combine these walking exercises with my strength training and I love it! I also have a somewhat sedentary job so these are also perfect for my lunch break when I can't go outside. Thank you!

This video popped up on my recommendeds on YouTube and it was perfect timing! I'm about to turn 51, still youngish but this last year has taken a toll on my physical health and mobility. I've been struggling to find a way back to exercise that won't hurt my back or knee, and these seem perfect. I can't wait to dive in! ❤

I have type 2 diabetes and these videos have played in big part of managing the condition in which I am doing well.Thank you for sharing these videos

[kathleenlynch]

Thank you for another fun workout that gets the job done. You two are the best!

[CJO]

Thank you so much for this! I was diagnosed with pre-diabetes 2 months ago. This is PERFECT!

Just what I need, as I’ve been told to get my sugar count down by March, ty

[julieluhr]

I like the activity. I keep smiling back at the 2 of you!

I can’t tell you how wonderful your videos are! I clicked on this and thought it would be too much for me. I was going to do another gentle stretch video of yours but then I heard u say it was for all levels. At the same time I also realized that I like to start moving right away and the thought of a stretching video first was going to deter me from starting. I absolutely LOVE all the videos I’ve done of yours but today made me realize I like to get right into it, get my blood flowing and my body moving to wake up! I hope this realization will help me to get into a fitness routine with your videos. Being completely out of shape at 62 and basically 100lbs overweight, I was happy to see I could do this video with no problems start to finish! Many thanks! 🙏🏼 🙏🏼🙏🏼 😊

[denisecatmom]

So glad I found your channel! Between now living in super cold country and having a bad back, I needed safe indoor workouts. Thank you!

[weenachua]

Thank you so much for all the wonderful videos. I am 59 years old and I enjoy doing your gentle workouts in the evenings. I love the flow of your workouts and the chemistry between your mum and you. I am doing it this morning again as it’s raining and I can’t go out for my morning walks. 😊

[VeggieTart]

Another lovely workout to help me wake up. And I'm sure you both would agree that the best workouts not only challenge your body but your brain as well.

[kristadotter]

Ladies, I can't thank you enough for these videos. I found them when I desperately needed them, for multiple reasons. I've been doing at least one of them a day and have added other workouts to them. I haven't felt this good in a long time. I'm stronger, I'm moving better, my clothes are looser, and I'll find out in March if my lung functions are better (I had pulmonary emboli and have been struggling to recover). Anyways, I want to thank you again because you might have, literally, saved my life ❤ ❤

[shadowkatbinga]

It’s nice to see you both this morning ☀️ It’s nice to mix things up! Keep it going to keep us moving 😊

[rosemariezanfardino]

I like that you can do it standing or sitting. Love you two ladies.

[janetdavies]

I find this the hardest of all your videos that I’ve tried. However I try to do it at least once a week as I like to shake things up every day

[martiseelye]

Hi! Just introducing myself. I've been following along with you for quite some time and really appreciate you both.
