6. It Helps You Improve Cardiopulmonary Functioning
Your cardiopulmonary functioning is a fancy way of saying your heart and lung health. When asthma is a part of your life, having a strong heart and a strong set of lungs will help reduce the risk of ongoing asthma attacks. Essentially, your heart is a muscle that gets stronger and more efficient with increased use. An efficient heart supplies oxygen throughout your body quickly and effectively. Your lungs might not be muscles, but the same process is true. The more you use your lungs, the better they will be able to do their job. Having a heart and a pair of lungs that are working at maximal capacity is a great way to reduce frequency and intensity of asthma attacks.
