A member asked:

Can i tell me how i can push through a workout with asthma?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

May not be able: If one has an asthma flare during exercise then one should stop and use their rescue medication. Depending upon the response to the rescue medication one may not be able to "push through" a workout.
