Pulse Oximeter Training - Oxiline

Exercising with respiratory disease can seem daunting, and your motivation to exercise can change from day to day. This is normal! Some days you might feel ready and excited for physical activity. Other days you might think you are too tired, too busy, or too sick, and you may be worried about feeling short of breath.

On days when exercise seems intimidating, remember that every little bit of physical activity helps improve your overall health. This is because physical inactivity contributes to deconditioning, which is when your muscles start to become weaker. This makes doing activities more difficult and increases your shortness of breath.
