One of the reasons why exercise is therapeutic in the treatment of high blood sugar or diabetes... is you increase glucose transport capacity on the cell membrane ... It allows more glucose to be moved into the muscle, maybe then stored as muscle glycogen, and that helps to lower the blood sugar levels, especially if they're chronically high.
