A clinic nurse is evaluating a client with type 1 diabetes who intends to enroll in a tennis class. Which statement made by the
client indicates that the client understands the effects of exercise on insulin demand? a. "I will carry a high-fat, high calorie food, such as a cookie."

You can calculate your maximum heart rate by subtracting your age from 220. For example, if you're 45 years old, subtract 45 from 220 to get a maximum heart rate of 175. This is the average maximum number of times your heart should beat per minute during exercise.
