jogging + gym on meds?

Simple Questions

Hi all,

to cut a long story short I’m titrating at the moment - on elevanse atm 30mg (prob due to go up) and I’m just wondering what everybody does about working out.

I really want to continue working out (lifting weights, jogging just starting out, even if at borderline walking speed, so I am trying to be careful on my heart)

I’ve been considering shifting the workouts to before I take the medication, or should I ease intensity of workouts to just lighter weights etc?

I’m just thinking too as surely workouts would help the heart cope with extra strain ADHD meds can cause, and I want to keep up any momentum with fitness.

Point is, I’d just be open to hearing if meds affect you/ how or if you need to work around it. Please be nice I’m just looking for advice or experience 😭😭

Thanks!!
