- Been diagnosed with asthma, diabetes or heart trouble.
- Pain in your arm, neck or chest when you are active.
- Frequent dizzy spells.
- Breathing trouble after physical activity.
- Problems affecting your bones or joints that make it hard to walk.
- Led a sedentary lifestyle and you are older than 40.
