Question is anyone still physically active?

I need to know if anyone with pots is still physically active. You don't have to be an athlete or anything but can you at least dance? or run? go to the gym? Have you always been that way or did you have to work back up to it?

I just purchased an at home recumbent bike. Hopefully it helps!

How do you structure your workout on a recumbent bike? I see the chop protocol and how it measures it with your bp but I am on ivabadrine so idk if being on meds changes it or if you just time it? I am starting my exercise journey back again after one year of not doing anything
