I am 50. My ef was last measured at 30%. I saw the rehab programs and thought they were too dumbed down. I now lift heavy 6 days a week for about 1.5 hours a day. Also my gym is not air conditioned and I live in Texas. The gym gets over 110 F at times. People should not quit life with heart failure. Push yourself to the extreme and youll do great

I am 75 years old. I have CHF and an ejection fraction of 30 percent. I walk 5-6 days a week 1 to 1.5 hours per day. I do strengthening exercises with reactance bands to increase core and all four extremity strength and bone mineral density 2 hours per day 6 days per week. I have been doing this for the past year. I use a pulse odometer to monitor percent oxygen saturation and pulse rate.

I take naps in the middle of the day if I need to, and I'm awake at odd hours of the night. Heart Failure is a full time job. Good luck, Cameron, I hate hearing that you're dealing with CHF at such a young age.

2 years ago I went for a test where they put dye in you as you go through I believe it was an mri machine. When I was done my cardiologist said your heart seems fine with the left side pumping a little slower but nothing concerning. I was diagnosed with LS bundle branch block in 2010. I didn't go back until 1 day 2 years later I had a lung infection and went to the ER where they gave me an IV Antibiotic and my fever was down and my pulmonary congestion dissipated 95%. I felt much better as I went home, relaxed and woke the next few days weak in my legs. I thought it was from laying around alot but as a Nurse after 5 days I was still weak mainly in my legs. As I looked through the discharge papers it said I suffer from cardiac disease with an EF of 35. How could they know this I hadn't been to my cardiologist since 2 years when he said you have a slight blood slowing down on L side but nothing to be concerned with. I immediately scheduled a real angiogram where they went thru the groin. After 45 minutes zero plaque walls and all looked good. I asked the Dr " what can I do to bring up my 35 EF? " Nothing Really" as he seemed in a rush to leave. I've been a Nurse for 31 years and I don't mind bad bedside manner if your smart but a little eccentric. That was 6 Mos. AGO and other then being more tired during the day I go to the gym 4x a week and do something daily like walking or hiking daily. I'd rather die happy exercising then living doing nothing and waiting to die. Screw that I'm going out on my own terms. I think I'll find a cardiologist I respect. I'm getting a new primary also. My cholesterol wasn't real high like 180s and triglycerides were also not bad. The first time I meet him after a CBC he says I'm putting you on a Statin. I said I wouldn't take a statin ever. He says "Why and don't say never". I said I've been a cardiac nurse for years have read and listened to the Brightest minds I respect and unless heart disease runs in my family ( it doesnt) then I believe there's no correlation to show that my cholesterol wich was fairly normal for my family Statins can do more harm. He still wanted to write it and that's when I believe the drug company was paying him off to write scripts of the statin he was pushing. He happend to run into somebody who knows when he's pushing so hard to write there script he's most likely getting paid off. Why would a drug repair throw an extravagant party if that didn't take place? Not me Doc sorry.

@jasonwimberly5636 8 месяцев назад

Ask about isosorbide mononitrate if you haven’t already. There are some new medications called camtens that are in clinical trials the thing with these although they remodel the heart and make it more elastic and less stiff, they can also lower EF, so with an EF of less than the high 40’s you might not be a good candidate. However, if you can get that EF up you might be able to use camtens to make your heart less stiff. Also try looking into alcohol septal ablation therapy to see if you are a good fit for that. In addition consider going vegan, plant based diets have been shown to reverse heart failure in a pretty good portion of the heart failure population.

Ive 4 different cardiologist, they disagreed on somethings, but they all gave Statins. They all say keep ur LDL low. I watch alot of youtube, the longer ur Statins the benefits double every 5 years.

Im 54 years old and have been diagnosed with CHF years ago. I have been taking meds like entresto 200mg, toricard 5mg. Spire 25mg and jardiance 10mg. together with my other maintenance meds with kidney stones, and RA. Anyway, i thought this might help viewers: 1. Be vigilant in managing your symptoms before, during and after the exercise (shortness of breath, fatigue, body weight, bp, heart palpitations or swollen ankles) 2. Warming up and cooling down for prolonged periods of time (10-15 mins for each element). 3. Try not to stand still to avoid dizziness. Keep feet moving. Even if sitting do ankle pumps 4. Moderate endurance exercise is safe oldo some may not do standing exercises. Seated exercise maybe an option. Short exercise with period of rest is advisable. 5. Put rate of exertion in mind and monitor breathlessness. Target heartrates are not recommended for people qith HF. 6. Resistance or strength exercises are proposed. Avoid isometric exercises and valsalva maneuver as they may cause arythmia. P.s. Thanks for the video. Will try to follow it ❤

I have heard of another procedure called ablation or something similar which may also be succesful. Good luck with your treatment.

IMPORTANT: Lots of youtube viewers won't see a professional for exercise advice and will just watch your video to try it. At the very beginning you need to vigorously stress and warn patients that doing too strenuous an exercise for their current heart's ability or diagnoses can cause a heart attack and possible death. You need more emphases on how to recognize and know symptoms of when it's time to stop or slow down an exercise and rest. Originally I didn't know I had CHF until I did strenuous exercise one evening working in my yard but didn't stop when I felt weak and short of breath, but pushed myself to finish. Suddenly I had severe and terrifying chest pain and a heart attack. 911 was called. Tests done in the hospital showed that I had had congestive heart failure already, didn't know it, and I had ignored my weakness, thinking I was just out of shape.

In 2018, I started exercising, and when I felt the strongest in June 2021, I had another heart attack and two stents were placed, so now I have a total of 5 stents. I did almost all the examinations, 59% heart ultrasound, ergospirometry which is great, holter pressure and holter ECG, everything is great! But I have a problem when I start exercising, 30-45 after training with weights of 5-10 kg, my blood pressure suddenly jumps and my heart starts to malfunction, nitroglycerin requires. I don't want to give up, but now I'm afraid to start training. I don’t need some weights but they also make me less of a problem. I'm spinning in a circle and I don't know where to start. it is important for me to exercise moderately and maintain strength as much as possible.

I'm 66 now. I had heart attack in Oct 2020 and doctors placed three stents on my heart. Reports say ejection fraction was dropped to 20-25% during I was in hospital then. They also implanted an ICD (Implantable cardioverter defibrillator). I am now under heart medications namely Entresto, Xarelto, Jardiance, Metoprolol and Atorvastatin. I was also given Eplerenone last year that I took for about eight months but doctor removed it because my BP dropped significantly. After removing Eplerenone, my BP observes to be quite perfect. I walk about 5 miles (8 km) uphill and downhill about four days a week without getting tired or fatigue. However, the left ventricle ejection fraction dropped to 20-25% in Mar 2023 which was 35-40% last couple of years, and doctor was confused if I would be a advanced heart failure patient. That's the reason they recommended me to have a cardiopulmonary test (stress test) that turned out to be quite good. I never had shortness in breadth, dizziness or likewise symptoms. But I felt laziness when I had low BP. I have watched many videos and read many comments but was never able to find out a way that would help me improve the ejection fraction. Now, I also started biking in the city and do not feel difficulties. Is there anybody who have idea on "how to improve ejection fraction".

@ExerciseForHealth Год назад

I'm not sure how you can specifically target the ejection fraction as it's the percentage difference between the volume of blood in the left ventricle before and after the heart beat.
