There is nothing to stop you trying with COPD, it may take longer than 9 weeks. Do you have an oxygen requirement?

Anyone with a medical problem should check with their doctor before embarking on a new exercise routine. I wish you all the best whatever the outcome is, keep us posted too. Good luck.
