These experts speak strongly for exercise (largely strenuous to be beneficial) I but they caution against over-doing it thusly; Exersice iss^po strenous if the heart refuses to stop pounding 10 minutes after exercising; if breathing is still uncomfortable 10 minutes Afterwards; if the individual is still shaky more than 30 minutes afterwards; if fatigue carries over into the next day. If your idea of exercise is to drive to BOLGER'S DRUG STORE for your prescriptions, that's your privilege.
