Big Blue Test Coming to Burkley Fitness Center

November 12, 2018/by Lana Likens

FAIRBURY – How does exercise affect your blood sugar? Find out on Nov. 26 with the Big Blue Test at Jefferson Community Health & Life Burkley Fitness Center.

JCH&L Diabetes Educator Bekah Kimberlin, PharmD, will be at the fitness center on Nov. 26 from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. to take blood sugars pre- and post-exercise. Between blood sugar checks, participants are encouraged to exercise for 14-30 minutes, doing the workout of their choice, or a suggested workout.

“Exercise is one of the many factors which affect your blood sugar. This is an opportunity to see how exercise affects yours – with no cost and no obligation,” said Kimberlin.

It is not necessary to be a fitness center member to participate – just check in with the front desk when you arrive and tell them you would like a complimentary pass to participate in the Big Blue Test.

There will also be information on diabetes, diabetes prevention and living with diabetes. Diabetes risk tests are available all month at JCH&L Burkley Fitness Center.

“Knowing your risk for diabetes is important. We want those who are at risk to know there are ways to prevent diabetes, and we can teach you. For those who have diabetes, it is possible to live an active and healthy life, and we can help you learn ways to live the best quality of life and reduce your risk of serious complications,” Kimberlin said.

November is National Diabetes Month, and it’s a great time to learn more about diabetes. For more information, contact Kimberlin at 402-729-3351.
