Am I alone here with biking? I've tried all sorts of sports, and so far biking seems to be the best, as if it's perfectly fitted for my condition. It's low impact, easy on the body, I'm by myself so I can go at my own pace, and I get the bonus of transportation and getting to know the city, or nature, on a bike, which is an experience within itself. I wonder if there is any connection between having HCM and biking being a good excersize for this condition.
Running is a definite no no, it just feels so hard and stressfull, which eliminates almost all organized sport (football, soccer, basketball, etc) and people to play with. The cardiologist didn't like the idea of weight lifting. Walking just doesn't seem to be excersize enough for a young man like me. Hiking territory is too long a drive outside the city. Biking is the only sport that so far fits in with me.
Does anyone else have an excersize which fits in with your condition. Martial arts? Canoeing? Skiing? (oooo, I hate skiing) Maybe someone has some good ideas to inspire me to try something different.
