HI
3 months after stenting after a myocardial infarction
and 1 month after a planned stenting
you are free to do any exercise you want
you can live a perfectly normal life ,you are free to do every exercise apart from lifting weights more then 15 kg,infact a strenous exercise like brisk walking at a rate not less then 5km/hr a day for atleast 6 days a week should be done and is recommended ,you walk daily but this walk will be effective only when it is brisk in nature ,practically speaking you should be sweating after 45 minutes
breathing exercises like Anulom vilom and bhastika should be done daily for 15 minutes
one thing to remember is that do not over do any exercise ...start slowly and increase gradually
thanks
