title: [Exercise, training and sports in children with asthma from the sports medicine viewpoint].
abstract: Asthmatic children can tolerate physical exertion relatively well. They should undergo physical training for social, psychological, educational, and medical reasons. It is important to understand the different effects of different kinds of sport on coordination, flexibility, speed and endurance. Details are described. Swimming is especially recommended for children with an exercise-induced asthma. A high air temperature is favorable. An interval-training is more suitable than a continuous work such as jogging. Postexercise bronchial obstruction can be prevented by prophylactic medication with selective beta-2-sympathomimetica or cromolyn sodium. Details of an endurance-training are described.
