Entire Body System
- Pain
CONCLUSION: All modes of aerobic exercise combined with resistance training led to reduced pain and improved function. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Pain after 6 to 24 weeks: People who exercised were 11% better (or 11 points, ranging from 4 to 18 points) and rated their pain as 56 points versus 65 points in the control group. [cochrane.org]
Be sure to speak to your doctor if you have any questions and stop if you experience any increased pain. [livestrong.com]

For instance, the new research may help find better ways of preventing old people from falling because their muscles are weak. [nytimes.com]
Benefit #3: It Can Help Reduce High Blood Pressure High blood pressure is most often caused by a weak heart. A weak heart has to pump and work much harder to deliver the same amount of blood around your body when compared to a stronger heart. [fitandme.com]
Top of Page Results We selected studies on the basis of study design, country, follow-up duration, characteristics of participants at baseline, type of APA, outcome measures, and main results ( Table 1 ) and analyzed the studies’ strengths and weaknesses [cdc.gov]
- Swelling
During attacks, the lining of the bronchial tubes swells, narrowing the airways and restricting the flow of air in and out of the lungs. [medicaldaily.com]
Cardiovascular
- Heart Disease
The study looked at 750 patients who had previously been diagnosed with coronary heart disease. [acc.org]

Musculoskeletal
- Muscle Strain
Swimmers are encouraged to use proper form to reduce the chance of muscle strain; for example, people who do not use proper breathing techniques when swimming the freestyle (crawl) stroke may experience neck pain. Using the elliptical machine. [arthritis-health.com]
Neurologic
- Stroke
Aerobic exercise can improve upper limb motor function in both healthy and stroke populations. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Burning Sensation
It should be noted that although a progressive increase in aerobic exercise intensity is beneficial, an eventual “burning sensation” in localized working muscles is associated with localized lactic acid build up and should be avoided as this is a clear [nfpt.com]
Lactic acid is produced and will cause a burning sensation in the muscles. The body will try to get oxygen to the muscles as fast as it can, but it is not always able to give the muscles all the oxygen they need. [en.wikibooks.org]
- Perseveration
How he went from one extreme to the other is a story of perseverance, determination, family support, faith in divine guidance and belief in his calling. [clubindustry.com]
Workup
Serum
- Hyperglycemia
Aerobic exercise will not worsen hyperglycemia when the PEBG > 16.7 mmol/L. Post-dinner exercise decreases the blood glucose better than other periods of the day. CLINICAL TRIALS REGISTRATION: ChiCTR-ONC-17010400, www.chictr.org.cn. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Thresholds for hypo- and hyperglycemia were set at 3.5 and 10.9 mmol/L, respectively. [care.diabetesjournals.org]
Diabetes is a group of metabolic disorders characterized by hyperglycemia resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action (hepatic and peripheral glucose uptake), or both. [doi.org]
- Glucose Decreased
Blood glucose decreased fastest in the first 60 min of exercise. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Insulin adjustments and glucose supplementation Participants reduced their insulin doses on exercise days by making either a 10% decrease in intermediate or long-acting insulin (MDI) or a 50% decrease in basal rate starting 1 h before exercise and maintained [care.diabetesjournals.org]
- Hypoglycemia
[…] carbohydrate source. [8] Indirectly, since there are no changes in metabolic rate while a greater percentage of energy comes from fatty acids this reduces glucose oxidation and attenuates the rate of glucose drops induced by endurance exercise (risk of hypoglycemia [examine.com]
Treatment
Tai chi treatment compared with aerobic exercise administered with the same intensity and duration (24 weeks, twice weekly) had greater benefit (between group difference in FIQR scores=16.2 points, 8.7 to 23.6, P CONCLUSION: Tai chi mind-body treatment [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prognosis
Not only did he rapidly start losing weight, he also gained tremendous strength, balance, and flexibility — to the point he proved his doctors' prognosis wrong by walking unaided in less than a year! Not only that, now he can RUN again. [fitness.mercola.com]
