Improve pain threshold
Reduce tender point count
Reduce pain
Boost cognitive function
Lessen anxiety and depression
Perceive their condition as less severe
Studies also show that people with FMS are able to tolerate warm-water exercise better than some other forms of exercise.

Question: Why can't people with chronic fatigue syndrome exercise for an energy boost?
When most people are tired, exercising can help give them a boost of energy. Wouldn't people with chronic fatigue syndrome feel better if they just got more exercise?

While it seems logical that they would, the answer is no. That's because of the key chronic fatigue syndrome symptom: postexertional malaise.
After exercising, postexertional malaise is an intensifying fatigue that heightens other symptoms in people with chronic fatigue syndrome. Exertion actually makes chronic fatigue sufferers feel worse and have less energy.
