• it makes sense to have at least another 2 weeks off the bike

    Obvs I'm not a doctor and have no idea about what to do when recovering from Covid but a couple of years ago I had an experience where I broke two ribs and several weeks later developed pneumonia because I had not been breathing deeply enough and my lungs were not clearing themselves out.

    I've seen some things to suggest breathing exercises to make sure you're doing the best for your lungs when recovering from Covid. I do wonder whether some light exercise would be beneficial in terms of making sure your lungs get a proper inflating?

    Obviously wouldn't have to be cycling. Maybe even a stiff brisk walk oevery day.

    Would be curious to know if light exercise helps with Covid outcomes.

  • I’ve been trying to deep breathe as often as I can.

    I’m a diaphragmatic breather normally, so been stretching and yoga poses and breathing.

    Went for a cold brisk walk yesterday with a scarf wrapped around my head, which felt ok.
