What exercise is suitable for patients with myocardial infarction?
Patients with myocardial infarction should choose low-risk exercise recommended by doctors instead of high-intensity exercise. Low-risk exercise refers to enhancing heart function and reducing heart burden without overwork, as follows:

1. Walking: For patients with myocardial infarction, jogging may be too intense, but jogging is a safe and effective exercise. Patients can walk outdoors or under the guidance of medical staff for less than 30 minutes.

2. Swimming: Swimming is short-term and low-risk, which enhances cardiopulmonary function and consumes calories. But you should pay attention to the temperature when swimming. If the water temperature is too low, it is not suitable.

3. Yoga and Pilates: These non-intense stretching and strengthening activities are beneficial to patients with myocardial infarction. This kind of exercise helps to strengthen the core and improve flexibility.

4. Cycling: For patients with myocardial infarction, cycling slowly is a challenging exercise. Doctors may advise patients to ride on flat ground instead of riding on mountain roads or bumpy roads.

5. Moderate aerobic exercise: including rowing, jogging machine, walking machine and other aerobic exercises suitable for the back posture and arm posture of patients with myocardial infarction.

6. Possible other sports: golf, badminton or simple fitness equipment exercise.

In short, patients with myocardial infarction should pay attention to their physical condition, only do exercises allowed by doctors, and follow the principles of safety and moderation. Please consult your doctor and follow his instructions before starting any new physical exercise.
