1. Muscle is the main site for glucose disposal
After you eat, insulin moves glucose into cells — and 70–80% goes into muscle.
→ More muscle = more storage = lower blood sugar and better insulin sensitivity.



🔥 2. Muscle acts like a glucose sponge
When you move (walk, lift, etc.), muscles pull glucose from your blood even without insulin (via GLUT-4).
→ Helps regulate blood sugar naturally, even with insulin resistance.



⚙️ 3. Better insulin sensitivity
Active, strong muscles respond better to insulin, so your body needs less of it.
→ Less insulin resistance, less fat storage, better energy control.



🏋️‍♀️ 4. Muscle burns glucose at rest
Muscle tissue uses more energy than fat, even when you’re resting.
→ More muscle = higher metabolism = steady glucose use.
