not true...not in my case at least. as for exercises I walk on the treadmill for at least 30 mins sometimes longer and lift weights I used to use the elliptical and the stationary bike but the key in all exercises done is listening to your body I usually spend from 1 hr to an hour and a half at the gym MS is not going to hold me back Good Luck! try it and let me know how it works out for you

I just started Gilenya and haven't changed my workout routine. I'm not seeing an increase in fatigue.

Yes, I go to the gym a couple times a week and am finally catching up physically. Before Gilenya I was in so much pain I laid on the couch...ruined the couch too. I was very out of shape and could barely climb on the machines. Doing much better after a year on Gilenya.

I dance for half an hour to forty five minutes five times a week and take Gilenya.
