The Missing Link in Your Client’s Plateau? Blood Glucose.
Why Do Clients Hit Plateaus?
Every fitness professional has experienced the frustration: a client working hard, following the plan, and… nothing.
The scale won’t budge
Energy is inconsistent
Workouts feel harder than they should
You tweak training volume, adjust macros, and try new recovery strategies, yet the plateau holds.
Here’s the truth: Sometimes the problem isn’t the workouts or the food. It’s the blood glucose.
Blood Glucose: The Hidden Saboteur of Progress
Most fitness pros only consider blood glucose when coaching clients with Diabetes, but it plays a significant role in every client’s results.
When blood glucose levels swing wildly, it can:
Causes intense cravings that derail nutrition
Lead to chronic fatigue and low training intensity
Increase cortisol and inflammation, slowing recovery
Make fat loss nearly impossible
Without stable glucose levels, even the best programs can stall out.
How Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) Breaks the Plateau
Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) gives you 24/7 insight into a client’s glucose levels, finally allowing you to see why they’re stuck.
CGM data can reveal:
If pre-workout meals are spiking blood sugar and crashing energy
Whether overnight glucose is too high (often linked to stress or poor sleep)
Which workouts trigger extreme glucose fluctuations that impair recovery
By understanding these patterns, you can make targeted adjustments to training and nutrition that actually move the needle.
In the Real World
Imagine a client whose energy crashes halfway through every HIIT session. You suspect it’s a fueling issue, but can’t confirm.
With CGM data, you discover their glucose drops sharply 20 minutes into the workout. Solution?
Adjust pre-workout nutrition for more sustained energy
Modify the workout structure to prevent the crash
Within a week, their intensity is back, recovery improves, and the plateau starts to break.
Why You Need CGM Skills as a Coach
Using CGM to analyze and optimize training is no longer just for medical professionals. It’s a groundbreaking skill set for fitness coaches who want to stand out and deliver results their clients can see and feel.
