Before you start exercising
Although the Samsung Health application is a great companion to your exercise
routine, it is always best to make sure you consult with your physician before
beginning any exercise regimen. While moderate physical activity, such as brisk
walking, is safe for most people, health experts suggest that you talk with your doctor
before you start an exercise program, particularly if you have any of the following
conditions:
lHeart disease; Asthma or lung disease; Diabetes, or liver or kidney disease; and
Arthritis.

Before beginning your exercise regimen check with your doctor if you have symptoms
suggestive of heart, lung, or other serious disease, such as:
lPain or discomfort in your chest, neck, jaw, or arms during physical activity;
lDizziness or loss of consciousness;
lShortness of breath with mild exertion or at rest, or when lying down or going to
bed;
lAnkle swelling, especially at night;
lA heart murmur or a rapid or pronounced heartbeat;
lMuscle pain when walking upstairs or up a hill that goes away when you rest.
It is recommended that before engaging in an exercise routine, you consult with your
doctor or medical practitioner. If you are unsure of your health status, have several
health problems, or are pregnant, you should speak with your doctor before starting a
new exercise program.
