Abstract

Comparative studies have demonstrated that running is the greatest stimulus to exercise-induced asthma (EIA) and is the preferred laboratory test model to examine EIA and its modifications. Swimming provokes least EIA and is the exercise of choice for asthmatics. The frequency and magnitude of EIA produced by running is not altered by regular swimming training.
