Nebo74 Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 My doctor thinks I have exercise induced asthma and gave me albuteral. Does anyone else have this? Looking for any other real life suggestions on how to contain the attack during exercise? He was really busy and didn't offer much in the way of what to do other then take a puff of this magic inhaler before, during an attack, and after. Link to post Share on other sites
Beautiful Inside Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 yes i have an idea why not focus more on weight training. dont focus on cardio running and all sometimes people get better results from toning their bodies and building muscle....i always focus more on weights and the leg machines or arms stuff like that i hate cardio with a passion but i still do it instead i do it last and i walk on the treadmill for 20 min and ill switch it to walking incline or just a regular walk whichever i feel like to do....

But I used swimming as an exercise to fight back asthma. After three years of rigorous training, viola! My Asthma's gone Link to post Share on other sites

The only solution that worked for me was reducing the intensity. Link to post Share on other sites
anne1707 Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 Please get advice from another doctor and don't rely on this forum. There may well be no need to stop cardio work. Just think of Steve Redgrave and Paula Radcliffe - world class athletes and both have asthma. Link to post Share on other sites
