How to use glucose sensors effectively in sport

Register for our live webinar on ‘How to use glucose sensors effectively in sport’, with Professor Asker Jeukendrup and Dr Simon Helleputte.

Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) has rapidly entered the world of sport, promising personalised insights into fuelling, recovery, and performance. But what can CGM truly tell us and, perhaps more importantly, what can it not tell us?

In this live webinar, Prof. Asker Jeukendrup will explain the fundamentals of blood glucose regulation and the meaning of glucose concentrations during exercise and daily life, providing the scientific foundation needed to interpret CGM data accurately. Dr. Simon Helleputte will then explore the real-world application of CGM in sport: how athletes and practitioners are using it today, where it adds value, and where its limitations restrict meaningful interpretation. The session concludes with clear, practical recommendations on when and how CGM can (and cannot) support athlete monitoring and decision-making.

This webinar is for practitioners, coaches, and athletes looking to understand the science behind CGM in sport.

How to use glucose sensors effectively in sport

Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is rapidly entering the world of sport, but how useful is it really?

From personalised fuelling to recovery insights, CGM promises a lot. But to use it effectively, coaches, practitioners, and athletes need to understand both the science and the limitations behind those glucose curves.

Join Prof. Asker Jeukendrup and Dr. Simon Helleputte for an in-depth, evidence-based webinar that cuts through the hype and provides clear, practical guidance on how CGM can (and cannot) support athlete performance.

Dr Simon Helleputte

Simon Helleputte (Belgium) obtained a Master’s degree in Rehabilitation Sciences and Physiotherapy at Ghent University in 2018, where he subsequently completed his doctoral research. His PhD, awarded in July 2023, was entitled “Glycaemic control, cardiovascular health and physical activity in people with type 1 diabetes – A challenging triangle to target.”

Following his PhD, Simon conducted applied postdoctoral research on the role of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in athletic populations, further integrating technology into exercise and metabolic research. He is the author of Empowered: The Science of Exercise with Type 1 Diabetes (2025). Currently, he serves as a postdoctoral researcher in exercise physiology and metabolism, with a focus on carbohydrate metabolism, hormonal regulation, and type 1 diabetes. In parallel, he is a performance coach through his business, Simon’s Endurance Lab, where he applies scientific insights to performance testing, training, and nutrition strategies for endurance athletes, guided by his mission to “bring the science to the athlete.”
