Can you exercise with palpitations?

Patients with palpitations can engage in moderate exercise, but should avoid strenuous physical activity. Palpitations may be caused by various pathological factors, such as rapid heart rate or insufficient blood supply to the heart. In such cases, vigorous exercise might further increase the cardiac workload, potentially triggering serious consequences such as angina or myocardial infarction. Appropriate light activities, such as walking or practicing Tai Chi, can promote blood circulation without excessively increasing the burden on the heart, thus helping to alleviate symptoms. During stable periods of the condition, patients with palpitations can perform moderate exercise according to their individual physical condition, but they should pay attention to controlling the intensity and duration of activity to avoid excessive fatigue and symptom exacerbation. At the same time, maintaining good作息 habits (resting habits), ensuring adequate sleep, and regularly monitoring blood pressure and lipid levels are also important measures in managing palpitations.
