Cardio during insulin window?

[Jrizzle385]

My schedule has me doing a cardio session during the active time of my insulin use (humalog). Provided I have sufficient carbohydrates before hand, and have a shake of BCAA's/glucose or isolate/glucose with me, what are the risks? This is not a high intensity cardio session. It's more 20-30 minutes of moderate intensity (i.e. light elliptical or stairstepper).

If your going to go that route which I would not suggest, then you should have some glucose tabs on you just in case you start going hypo.

Since elevated insulin levels, especially achieved by injecting it, will effectively halt fat mobilization - why would you do cardio when it is active anyway?
