Fitness
Fitness plays a central role in my life, helping me manage my type 1 diabetes and maintain overall health and well-being.
This page brings together everything I’ve found helpful along the way—an exercise library with detailed movement guides, a selection of workout programs (both my own and trusted recommendations), and a curated list of fitness resources including books, podcasts, websites, and YouTube channels. Whether you're looking to build strength, improve your health, or support your diabetes management through exercise, I hope you find something useful.
