Interventions aimed at promoting physical activity in people with asthma could improve their symptoms and quality of life — according to new research from the University of East Anglia.
Researchers looked at whether interventions such as aerobic and strength or resistance training, had helped participants with asthma.
Although they found that these interventions worked, patients with asthma may have had difficulty undertaking them because of their difficulty travelling to fitness groups or because the interventions were not suitable for people with additional health conditions.
