I will be delivering a BASES workshop alongside @chelsea72794446 at @WrexhamUni around the subject of methods to improve exercise fidelity in cardiac rehab. If you would like to attend see link below 👇🏼 Please share @bacpr @BHFCymru @basesuk @CR_East_BCU bases-live.workbooks.com/pro…

We need to move away from old fashioned, generalised programming particularly in the NHS within rehabilitation programmes - for example cardiac rehab 3 x 10 chest press for a 62yr old female CABG and 3 x 10 chest press for a 42yr old male STEMI with PCI are unlikely to produce the same results based on different goals, co-morbidities, age, gender, exercise experience, technique and motivation

Exercise based cardiac rehab research is stale, its the same information year in year out. We know it works, let’s delve deeper 🤓

Cardiac rehabilitation services are so much more than providing exercise classes for patients post MI and/or heart surgery. Cardiac rehabilitation can support heart failure services to provide care and increase confidence in patients diagnosed with what is a terrifying diagnosis

7 months ago I was ventilated in a coma with autoimmune encephalitis. I had to learn to walk and talk again in Walton hospital where I spent 4 months. On the weekend I walked/jogged/ran 3km 💪🏼
