I've just turned 31 and I'm a bit concerned because I weigh 98 kgs and have been diagnosed with sleep apnea. I'm wondering if it's okay for me to start hitting the gym for some strength and weight training to help shed some pounds. Can this kind of exercise routine be good for me given my condition?

I'm really worried as my friend tested COVID positive just four days ago. They're fully vaccinated and don't have any major symptoms, and their oxygen level is between 98-99 with a pulse rate of 80. I'm not sure if the chest X-ray is showing anything alarming. Could you help me understand if everything looks alright, or if there's anything serious we should be concerned about? How can they get better?

no need to worry consult nearby physician
