Is it advisable to do exercise when affected by Noonan Syndrome? Which activities would you suggest and how intense should they be?
See if it is advisable for people with Noonan Syndrome to practice sports and which ones are the most recommended if you have Noonan Syndrome
If heart problems are present ,then speaking to the patients cardiologist would be advised, if not then if you were not sure still ,perhaps just a word with the patients usual doctor just to make sure that all areas are covered ,in many cases exercise is that the same of a person without noonan syndrome.

yes. exercise is important for everyone. low muscle tone Is associated with NS. weight training is a good option. walking is always good for you. your exercise routine depends on your health and doctors recommendations. my fiancé had no restrictions on activity when he was a kid. he was a high school wrestler. my daughter has no restrictions either. check with your dr first.

My son played many sports such as: running, football, rugby, hockey and he is a high level hockey referee. He will be 22 in January. Has always been followed by a couple of cardiologists and they are all fascinated by how he has developed. He is 5'10" and 170lbs. He eats extremely well and works out about 4-5 times a week. The only thing he was told to restrict was to not get into serious body building but light weights are fine. He has been stress tested many times and has always tested healthier than the average child/adult of the same age.
