An odd question, so I apologise.
Recently went to the doc’s as I have had yet another chest infection. I have chronic asthma which is maintained by the use of ‘preventer’ inhalers.
We compared my peak flow results with earlier ones and doc said I was consistently blowing less than I should have been when not unwell (obv less at present cos of chest infection).
Doc says that suggests I have less lung capacity than I should have for my height and age. I don’t smoke and never have smoked (apart from the odd cigar once or twice a year) and there’s no suggestion of any other problems.
So – is there any way to increase or maximise lung capacity and function – are there any exercises or drills I can do?
