The Science of Exercise with T1 Diabetes – with Dr Sam Scott

Managing type 1 diabetes as a triathlete isn’t just tough – it’s a constant balancing act. But with the right tools, strategy and support, you can absolutely perform at your best.

In this episode, I chat with Dr Sam Scott – exercise physiologist, diabetes researcher and former Head of Research for Team Novo Nordisk – about the science and strategy behind training and racing with T1D. Sam breaks down the complexities of glucose management, carbohydrate fuelling and how cutting-edge tech is empowering athletes to thrive.

  • Why this topic matters for endurance athletes
  • Sam’s background in exercise physiology and elite sport
  • The difference between type 1 and type 2 diabetes
  • Why exercise is so complex for T1D
  • Common myths about fuelling with diabetes
  • Smart carb strategies and CGM tech
  • Performance fueling: what’s possible?
  • The future of AI-driven support with Enhanced
  • The power of possibility: sport as a gateway
