Weight lifting requires a lot of HGB to power those oxygen hungry muscles. From my experience, when my counts were low, and I needed a transfusion, walking up stairs was difficult. I realize everyone takes having low counts differently, but I remember blackouts to be common. Even with light weight, that could be a problem.
Walk, walk, walk and take breaks when necessary. Even as a long distance running 26 year old, it was difficult to do much more than that when my HGB got below 8. But staying active is huge.
Those are my thoughts.
