Subject: Re: Question: Diving with Asthma
Marty,

I had severe asthma for many years. The answer for me was cardio exercise,
especially low-impact stuff, and swimming. Make sure you can swim properly, I
got lessons at my local pool which ensure I get a proper lung workout. I used
to run quite a lot, but my knees gave out the first time I tried to run 20
miles, so I only do very little on the running machine these days. Beating
asthma will not only improve your diving, but your whole life,

regards,

JT
