If you work out and have exercise asthma question

[nadasteph]

When I first started crossfitting I used it usually twice a workout. I realized after a while I was actually just using it as an excuse for a short break, and I just started to stop and take a few deep breaths. After about 3 months I stopped using it regularly.

I do two puffs before a work out.

Me too. 

But it sounds like you have regular asthma too, @crackhabit?

Yeah, I have asthma all around that needs a control inhaler daily, but exercise is a big trigger for worse symptoms.

Have you tried any of the other daily meds like  singulair or advair?

I was on those for a while, and I'm sure my doctor would still like me to be, but it seems like my asthma has improved as I've gotten older. I still have issues with changes of seasons - but now living in San Diego I get to deal with that a lot less.
