walking exercise

Initially starting with 10-15 minutes of physical activity, it will continue until it reaches a duration of 30 or 60 minutes, 3 times a week. The goal is to exceed the previous number of steps each time. If they feel fatigue or palpitations during the day, they can do their exercises the next day. If there are complaints of shortness of breath/shortness of breath, chest pain, palpitation during walking, he should take a break from walking and rest. A pedometer will be used to ensure regular follow-up and control, and the number of steps will be marked on the walking tracking chart. They will be told how to keep a record after each exercise. A weekly phone call will be made to motivate the patient and the researcher will be informed that they can call.
