Most likely: Depending on the activity you are performing might be your endurance to tolerate it and how your airways respond.It also depends on how advanced is your lung condition.If the COPD is in early stages you might still have some adequate capacity to tolerate exercise.If the condition keeps progressing you might notice how your endurance starts declining with time. If you smoke stop to avoid worsening.
