What precautions should be taken to resume physical activity?
Yoann : “If the return to exercise goes smoothly, and you are progressing to your usual state of fitness, you can continue without any problem.
In other cases, or if the symptoms felt during exertion are intense or unusual, we also recommend a small check-up with your doctor to take stock and adapt the resumption of exercise as well as possible.
The doctor will be able to check:
– Blood pressure, weight …
– If he deems it necessary, he can do an electrocardiogram, auscultate the lungs and, if necessary, prescribe a blood test.
-If necessary, he will advise you to do a cardiovascular check-up with the realization of a stress test. “
Noah: “You can take stock of your equipment with a professional. Having a recent and adapted pair of sneakers will limit the harmful consequences on the osteoarticular, ligament and muscular systems, especially if you have not practiced for a while.
At the slightest shortness of breath or abnormal pain appearing when resuming training, we advise you to contact your general practitioner. “
