Maharishi Ayurveda recommends exercising with the three doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha) in mind.
To balance Vata, regular exercise is good, but not too strenuous. Choose brisk walking, hiking, swimming, or bicycling over activities such as jogging.
Be alert to signs of increasing Vata, such as shortness of breath, weakness in the muscles, or other signs of fatigue.
Take rest then to prevent further imbalance in Vata dosha.
