Dr Blake is at Waleed?s school, and he has been using charts to talk about health, sport and getting fit. Now he is answering questions. Hello. I?m Julie Nixon. I started rock climbing last year, but I fell and broke my leg. Since then, I haven?t been active enough, but I want to try something safer! What?s your advice? You feel that rock climbing is too dangerous for you, and yes, it is more dangerous than most sports. The safest activity is swimming, and that?s also good for old injuries like yours. But with all sports, always remember to warm up first. Do gentle exercises for the various parts of your body. This helps stop injuries. I?m Jamie Smith, and I recently went football training after a week in bed with flu. I started well enough, but then I got out of breath. I began sweating badly, and my heart started beating very fast. Then I collapsed. They say my heart rate was 190 beats a minute! But I was all right after ten minutes, and I wanted to start again. The problem was that our coach sent me home! He said I wasn?t fit enough to train. Was he wrong? No, he was right ? and you were wrong. Hard training after you?ve been sick is dangerous, Jamie.
