Title: Pacing and how to exercise safely in Long Covid and ME/CFS: A Live Chat with Dr. Binita Kane and Professor Todd Davenport.
TWELVE: Welcome to The Long Covid Clinic's Fireside Chats with Dr. Binita Kane! In this highly requested Part 6 of our series, Dr. Kane delves into the crucial topic of Pacing and Safe Exercise in Long Covid and MECFS, featuring Todd Davenport, a Professor of Physiotherapy at the University of the Pacific in Stockton, California.
What exactly is pacing, and why is it vital for individuals with Long Covid and Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS)? Together, Dr. Kane and Todd Davenport will provide expert guidance, breaking down complex concepts into practical insights. From understanding the importance of pacing to utilising heart rate variability (HRV) monitoring to manage activity levels and prevent post-exertional malaise (PEM), this session promises to equip viewers with valuable tools for navigating exercise safely.
Todd's extensive research and expertise in ME/CFS position him as a leading authority in the field. As part of a pioneering research team, the Workwell Foundation, Todd has advocated the use of 2-day cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) to document PEM, perhaps the key differentiating characteristic of ME/CFS. Join us as Todd shares his insights and practical strategies for exercising safely with Long Covid and ME/CFS.
