Which fibromyalgia exercises to avoid?

[KeithD]

Exercises to avoid in fibromyalgia include high-impact activities such as running, jumping, and heavy weightlifting as they can worsen pain and fatigue. It is also advisable to avoid repetitive movements that put stress on the joints, such as tennis or golf. Instead, low-impact activities such as swimming, yoga, and tai chi can be helpful in managing symptoms and improving overall fitness. It is important to talk to your doctor and/or a physical therapist to determine a safe and effective exercise plan.
