The combination of exercises has a great impact on liver function. We can do aerobic exercises such as walking outdoors or on a treadmill, cycling, swimming...
Aerobic exercise focuses on the cardiovascular system and has an impact on blood oxidation. Aerobic activities include large, repetitive movements that increase heart rate and breathing patterns, increase the amount of oxygen you inhale, and speed up the delivery of oxygen to vital organs of the body, such as the liver.
Weightlifting improves overall bone and muscle strength. Maintaining bone strength as well as muscle strength is especially important for women, because liver disease often makes bones susceptible to osteoporosis. Weightlifting also reduces body fat, increases lean muscle mass and has an impact on metabolism.
If you have liver disease, listen to your body when participating in exercises. Fatigue is a common symptom of liver disease and you should consider this when setting a workout goal.
Each workout can include 10-20 minutes of aerobic exercise and a few weight-bearing exercises. Gradually increase until you can exercise 5 times or more per week.
