What is the best way to increase running stamina and pulmonary function?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Conditioning: To increase stamina, regular, incremental exercise workloads are needed. This can be measured with a modern treadmill or stationary bicycle. Pulmonary function will be stable unless disease sets in. So avoiding smoke, pollution, allergens and getting the Flu and Pneumonia shot are recommnded. Best wishes.
