Hello. The answer to your question basically depends on the *type* of cardiomyopathy you have.There are types which are inherited (usually a family history), and there are types which are acquired (sickness). So, to answer this question, we need more history. Excercise may be dangerous for some types, whereas for other types it may be helpful. can you provide more details?
