I wouldn’t bother with a blood glucose meter, they don’t even recommend them for type 2 diabetes. Your blood glucose levels as a non diabetic should be pretty stable no matter what, but there are still massive peaks and troughs after food, exercise etc. that doesn’t mean that there is a problem, the information you need about carbs vs exercise vs time of day (shit you not) is far to complex to make head of tail of it. The best solution is to eat properly and drink properly. Complex carbs, non processed things, not too many sweet treats (the worst thing for low glucose in a non diabetic, you just bounce high to low) . Keep hydrated.
If you do want to test your blood a glucose monitor is the way to go. If constantly test your blood and then uses algorithms to show you want it means through an app. Libre do one specifically for sports. I think they work out at £120ish a month for 2 14 day sensors and the app sups.
Liz has the libreview2 and as a type 1 diabetic it has changed her life, but as a non diabetic no.

By quoting my method to get a free meter so it is there forever.
I regularly, every 8 - 10 months get a free meters through the post from winning competitions I didn't enter. But this is the new singing and dancing meter.
