Question:
I sometimes suffer from chest pain when I am really “pushing it” during exercise. Is this normal?
Answer:
Exercise should be done only to the individual's capability and response level. Once cleared by your doctor to exercise, you should set limits for your exercise, and certainly monitor your heart rate for your age / physical status group. Perhaps getting some input from an Exercise Physiologist would be helpful. Chest pain during exercise is something that should be checked out by your physician.
