Exercise
and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Strengthening
and Endurance Exercises for COPD
Muscle
weakness is the main reason for increasing disability in persons with chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease. Weak arms and legs make day to day activities
like combing hair and carrying groceries more difficult.
Strengthening
will give you confidence which will improve your daily quality of life by
allowing you to be more efficient and less likely to curtail your activities
due to your disease.
Your
improved coordination, endurance,
increased motor skills and range of motion will reduce the energy cost
involved in your daily activities.

Cycling
Classes Are One of The Best Exercises For Toning Your Legs
Practically
every form of cardiovascular exercise, whether it be cycling, jogging, using an
elliptical trainer or cross-country skier, works out both your calves and your
thighs. However, cycling has two distinct advantages over other forms of
cardiovascular exercise. The first advantage is that the bikes in cycling
classes have adjustable pedal resistance; by increasing the resistance on your
bike, you can increase the amount of force needed to pedal the bike, which will
result in building up both your calves and your thigh muscles.
The
second advantage of cycling is that proper cycling form (which your instructor
can help you with) works out your core muscles. Maintaining proper form over a
30 or 45 minute workout is a great workout for your core muscles, which include
your abs, oblique's and your lower back. Having strong core muscles not only
improves the way you look, but also significantly reduces the chance that you
will injure your back from carrying heavy loads or making sudden movements in
the course of your daily life!
A
Healthy Menu For
Day
Two
Have
two poached eggs on a whole-wheat English muffin with two slices of turkey
bacon and a whole orange for breakfast. For lunch, try a sandwich made with two
slices of whole grain bread, 2 oz. of all-natural ham, a slice of Swiss cheese,
sliced tomatoes and shredded lettuce. Have a plum for dessert. Dinner could be
a cup of minestrone soup with a large salad made with 3 cups of romaine
lettuce, 1/2 cup chickpeas, 1/4 cup of feta cheese and 1 tsp. of olive oil
mixed with 2 tsp. of red wine vinegar. At snack times, have a low-fat string
cheese with the other half of the kiwi and a glass of skim milk with one sheet
of graham crackers.
