Exercises That Reduce Fibromyalgia Pain And Fatigue

Move Past The Pain

No doubt about it -- physical activity can sometimes be tough when you've got fibromyalgia. You can't do much on the days you're feeling drained. And on the days you're feeling good, you may be tempted to overdo it. But to cope better with your condition, you've got to exercise, even if it's just a little bit, because grinding to a complete standstill is only likely to make your symptoms worse. But the trouble is, there's no one-size-fits-all exercise guideline for folks with fibromyalgia. And strenuous activity may set you back. So you've got to be smart. But with a bit of trial and error -- and guidance from your doc -- you can determine what type of physical activities make sense for you, as well as how much, how often, and how intensely to do them.
