چکیده

Objective: To describe the mechanisms of Exercise-Induced Asthma (EIA) as well as the effect of different kinds of physical training on pulmonary function, anaerobic fitness, and aerobic fitness. We highlighted the importance of a correct diagnostic through exercise testing and, concerning treatment, the utilization of drugs such as beta-adrenergics and anticholinergics. Data source: The articles were chosen using the PubMed and Scielo databases, considering the year of publication and giving preference to clinical randomized trials with well-defined inclusion criteria. Summary of the findings: The medication used and the frequent symptoms during and after exercise appear as a limiting factor to the practice of exercises among subjects with EIA. This may result in a sedentary lifestyle. Conclusion: Subjects with EIA should be allowed to do exercise if well prescribed.
