Topic Moved: Re: Can I borrow some BREATH?!?!?!?!?!?
Ok guys, Ive been reading for a while, age 31, Ex- smoker (WOOOHHHOOO) and want to be around a little longer to see my kids grow up. I've ordered a new bike and Have started the exercise stages and eating healthier and it is already showing in my clothes and it gives me inspiration.
Im 31 5'10 210 pounds, down already from 220 in the last few weeks, Im riding a eliptical machine everyday along with eating less and heathier foods and NO SODAS. I drank sometimes a 12 pack a day of Mountain Dew and now its Aquafina only. ONE PROBLEM...... MY BREATH!!!!!!!! I have none. I cant imagine riding 50 miles on a bike on flats much less hills yet. I take it that I am aerobic and cardio Challenged. I run out of breath and seems like I cant get enough air into my lungs. I am Heatlhy, HAve a few extra pounds but not a lard @55. Do I just need to work on my longevity on the machine and ultimately the bike? And if so, How? I want to ride with a group later on (maybe in the spring) but theres no freaking way I could do it right now, I would run out of breath in the first few miles. I just want to be plain healthier, no racing, just healthier and loose some weight to boot. My goal weight is around 185 Thanks in advance for your help!  |

if not try making an appointment with a nurse, since the medication for asthma may make it easier maybe a mild course of steroids may be required just before you start your exercise regime. Dont get me wrong here i ain't trying to push drugs or tell you that steroids are a good idea. heavens forbid, at the age of 12 i was diagnosed as asthmatic, with the use of asthma medication and a few short courses of steroids my ability to exercise became easier. Exercise induced Asthma! |
