Trying to think if Zocor is a beta blocker or Cholesterol pill.

If Beta Blocker then exercise will be slowed down.

Now if it is The Cholesterol pill- a Statin of some form- Then it MAY have an effect on certain people. I have been on Statins for 10 years and last year had to increase the dose. They have never affected me with any of the pains that some have. But BB's slow the heart rate. They make it hard to get any impetus into any form of exercise. I was put on them and did affect my cycling. I came off them as soon as possible.
