A follow-on class from pulmonary rehabilitation which combines cardiovascular exercise with strengthening exercises.
The class is targeted at those with COPD as a way to help self-manage the condition.
Exercise can help with your breathing as it helps blood circulation which helps your heart become more efficient in getting oxygen to your body. It also strengthens your respiratory muscles which can make it easier to breathe. Exercise can slow down the rate of deterioration and help improve overall health and well-being making day-to-day tasks such as getting dressed, gardening, walking upstairs and household chores easier.
Those who are living with a lung condition.
