Walking along the prom next to the river - very few people smoke along there and there is no pollen.

Uphill walking or hiking helps me clear my chest, especially while doing some breathing exercises at the same time

I do ball exercises, especially for my core and upper body, face down, which helps to bring up mucus. I do Chair Yoga, which I can do even if I don’t feel well, it also helps bring up mucus and works on deeper breathing.

Singing is the best exercise, you use your lungs more in a singing session that in any other exercise - straight from my respiratory consultant
