Hey Becky,   The reason that your blood sugar may go up during exercise is because during physical activity your body releases the sugar stored in your muscles and liver in order to provide energy. When your body is excited, like during exercise, it releases a hormone called adrenaline. Adrenaline releases the stores of sugar in your muscle and liver and results in raised blood sugars. After exercise, you may want to wait about 30 minutes to test in order to get a more accurate reading.
