Living with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) means constantly battling shortness of breath and fatigue. Even simple tasks like walking to the mailbox or climbing a flight of stairs can leave you gasping for air. The fear of symptoms worsening may make you feel stuck, but there’s a way to regain control: exercise.
The Power of Exercise for COPD
Exercise plays a crucial role in managing COPD. Research shows that physical activity strengthens the muscles you use to breathe, improves lung function, and enhances overall endurance. Pulmonary rehabilitation programs, which combine aerobic and strength-training exercises, have been proven to reduce the frequency and severity of COPD flare-ups, improving both your quality of life and ability to perform daily tasks.
When guided by a professional, an exercise routine tailored to your abilities can help you gradually build your fitness, breathe more easily, and enjoy greater freedom in your day-to-day life.
