Building fitness and jogging with asthma?!
Question: I want to start jogging as I'm kind of unfit but I can't go longer then 2 minutes without being exhausted and I can't breath properly. How can I last longer?? I also have severe asthma, like as bad as you can get (I'm not supposed to be alive). I had a lung infection last year and was in hospital for ages and now I'm not as fit. I'm 19, BMI 22. What can I do? Has anyone else had this problem? My doctor just gives me more scripts for drugs that have screwed my body up heaps (I have osteoparosis from them) so no help from there.

You should not exercise more than you can tolerate as may bring about dangerous physical problems to you. You may walk more instead of jogging,or you should go into exercises like swimming.
