Seek advice from your doctor or health professional prior to starting exercise if you have had two or more falls in the past 12 months, a recent heart problem, shortness of breath, chronic pain, or other serious medical condition.
Stop exercising immediately if you become dizzy, develop chest pain or feel unwell. You should discuss this with your doctor.
