Asthma or fitness or what?

[RoadRaven]

Yup... pursuiters cough. Just like the others say here.

After a TT I know I couldn't have done more if I have it... if I don't cough for a day or so after, I know I slacked off somewhere!

By the end of a well-ridden TT I will be breathing heavily - sometimes "wheezing" and breathing mouth wide open, sometimes toungue hanging out (real glam, I'm sure ).

Glad to hear you are getting the chest pain checked, limewave.

Now correct me if i'm wrong but if I only suffer from asthma when I exercise, how can they tell by making me sit down the whole time and blow in a machine? No exercise whatsoever!!

Hee-hee! I was thinking the same thing to myself just this week when they told my my pulmonary test was perfect, after standing still in a sterile enviornment to do it....

Hacking after a hard effort is DEFINITELY normal for me. This week on one of our rides, it sounded like everyone in the group was a pack-a-day smoker... I think it's that time of the year here in the Northeast.

well, you all can try for yoga breathing techniques to control your coughing, and heavy breathing.

Heavy breathing is quite usual after hard cycling but a regular problem of heavy breathing may cause serious problems in future. It harms your lungs first.

I will suggestyou to try the yoga exersices for breathing. There are many asanas for improving the breathing habbits.

You will definately feel the change after it.
