Yes of course: If you have Insulin dependant diabetes, give yourself Insulin shots, you may have to adjust your Insulin dose after long or strenuous exercise. However exercise, running and weightlifting are encouraged for overall health and disease prevention in all people including diabetics. Get moving to feel better and be healthier.
