The dos and don’ts of exercising after having COVID-19 - Exercise Right
“After having COVID it’s important to take it easy and be gentle. Often symptoms may not appear straight away. People often find that hours (or even the next day) after exercising, they can feel lethargy or some aches and pains. If this is the case, then it’s important that you slow down and speak with your health team to get the appropriate advice that is suited for you. Pushing through will not help.”

“Exercise makes long COVID worse, and researchers may now know why…

The results were striking, revealing no notable problems with the way the heart or lungs were functioning but distinct abnormalities in the way the body’s tissues were taking up oxygen. The dysfunction was labeled as impaired peak systemic oxygen extraction (pEO2).”

I just heard someone recovering from acute Covid say that they can't exercise for a month to reduce the chances of developing Long Covid. That's not quite right -- though yay for knowing the link between exertion and LC! Here are some guidelines:

In the weeks after she caught COVID, in May 2022, Lauren Shoemaker couldn’t wait to return to her usual routine of skiing, backpacking, and pregaming her family’s eight-mile hikes with three-mile jogs. All went fine in the first few weeks after her infection. Then, in July, hours after finishing a hike, Shoemaker started to feel off; two days later, she couldn’t make it to the refrigerator without feeling utterly exhausted. Sure it was a fluke, she tried to hike again—and this time, was out of commission for months.”

“Good for @TIME for bringing attention to this lesser known complication of infection. Don't rush to resume your gym workout after you recover; I've been recommending to my patients that they avoid intense exercise for at least 6-8 weeks, and even lighten work duties (if possible). The cause of long term symptoms are still unknown, but rushing back into intense exercises anecdotally seems to exacerbate the mysterious autonomic nervous system damage that seems to happen. Some patients seem to have a weeks-long elevation of their resting heart rate during this period, which wearable devices might capture.”

“There has been many amazing #LongCovid studies recently I’ve just been mulling them over. 🏆 long covid patients get muscle NECROSIS with exercise. N-protein in the muscles but ALSO controls.

We are going to find viral persistence everywhere, aren’t we? No one wants to say it”

Analysis of fat oxidation capacity during cardiopulmonary exercise testing indicates long-lasting metabolic disturbance in patients with post-covid-19 syndrome
Analysis of fat oxidation capacity during cardiopulmonary exercise testing indicates long-lasting metabolic disturbance in patients with post-covid-19 syndrome
“Post-COVID-19 Syndrome (PCS) is characterized by symptoms including fatigue, reduced physical performance, dyspnea, cognitive impairment, and psychological distress. The mechanisms underlying the onset and severity of PCS point to mitochondrial dysfunction as significant contributor. This study examined fat oxidation as a function of mitochondrial capacity during exercise.”
