Managing Severe Asthma Safely During Exercise

 

5.Warm Up and Cool Down

Start slowly and stretch your muscles to get your body ready to work out. As you finish up, slow down and stretch again. Take 10 minutes each for warm-up and cool down. Try not to stop suddenly.

6.Avoid Pollen

The great outdoors isn’t great for asthma if there’s a lot of pollen in the air. Check the weather report for pollen counts and air quality. If it isn’t good, head for the gym instead. Do you have seasonal allergies like hay fever? Make sure you take your allergy medications, too.
