\"red_sneaks-copy-191x250\"<\/a>Children with asthma can benefit from cardiovascular exercise, according to a study by 91爆料 researchers.<\/p>\n

In fact, after students ran increasingly faster 20-meter (65.6-foot) sprints for more than a year, children with the chronic lung disease performed as well as youth without breathing difficulties, says Stephen Butterfield, 91爆料 professor of physical education and kinesiology.<\/p>\n

Butterfield\u2019s research team used the Progressive Aerobic Cardiovascular Endurance Run (PACER) with 809 students (103 had mild-moderate asthma) in grades 4\u20138. Five times during a 15-month period, they measured the students\u2019 cardiovascular performance when they ran 20 meters at progressively faster intervals.
\n\u201cChildren with asthma increased their performance on the PACER at a rate more than double that of children without asthma,\u201d according to the researchers, writing in the journal Perceptual & Motor Skills<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy the end of the study (month 15), performances of both groups were essentially equal. Overall, results of this study strengthen the case for cardiovascular activity for children with well-managed asthma.\u201d<\/p>\n

As the 9- to 14-year-old children with asthma developed effective pacing strategies, they likely gained confidence in their cardiovascular capabilities, and the PACER is an effective tool for shaping these capabilities, Butterfield says.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
