Cardiac Rehab: Home Exercise Programme

- Welcome to Exercise For Health
If you have suffered a heart attack or had cardiac surgery, and have then undertaken a rehabilitation programme with a specialist cardiac team, then this video is a great way to maintain your activity levels at home. The format is similar to many of the Phase 4 Cardiac Rehab classes that take place across the UK in leisure centre and community based settings, but adapted for you to do in a home environment. I would recommend following this routine no more than 3 times a week and ensuring you have at least 48 hours between each session. It could also supplement your current Phase 4 Cardiac Rehab programme. The temperature of your exercise environment should be between 18 and 23 degrees Celsius. Please act responsibly if you choose to take part in this video, and listen carefully to the advice given before starting.

#ExerciseForHealth #CardiacRehab
Good morning Richard sir, I am from India, last month I went through angioplasty with one stent, my age is 51, while getting discharged from hospital, only walking and some breathing exercise was breifed by the treating doctor, but since I was very eager to improve my stamina, yesterday only I went through your routine, it was quite satisfying for me and for the entire duration I was able to sustain. Thank you for your concern for the patients. I will try to do regularly.
I do not understand why there are only 31k views on this video. This is the exercise program that has to be circulated to people with hypertension. I have fluctuating BP issue. When I have high BP I do these exercises for 2-3 days and my BP gets normal to the point that sometimes it gets to the border of low BP. Then I skip these exercises and just do some stretch exercises. For me, this exercise program is medicine for hypertension. Thank you, Richard!
I had a STEMI back in 2021, and I almost died in transport to another hospital, after surgery and a shiny new stent in an artery that was blocked 99 percent, I am feeling great, I still have one that is at 70 percent blocked that is being treated with meds so therefore AT TIMES I still have some angina, but nothing I cant handle, but anyways, I found your videos after I came home and opted to do my own cardiac rehab with the approval of my Cardiologist, and they are PERFECT for heart patients, I still do them at times just for a refresher and to feel good... I am 55 years old, was 52 when I had my heart attack..
This is by far the best video I have found after searching for 1 year for after cardiac workouts. Was originally searching 'workouts for seniors', but this addresses all the issues post recovery.
These TH-cam videos for cardiac rehab at home are very helpful. Cardiac rehab can be very expensive in America. Three sessions per week for 12 weeks for a total of 36 sessions-my insurance paid $150 and I paid $75 per session. That's a total of $2700 out of pocket for me. Many people simply cannot afford this, so they skip cardiac rehab after a cardiac event. Doctors should be mindful about costs for their patients and tell them about cardiac rehab options for home.
What a great channel! Had a mild MI and had 2 stents inserted then completed cardio rehab classes which were fantastic but then caught covid a couple of weeks later in the gym,so your home based exercises are perfect for my needs. One more happy subscriber. Thanks.
I had a heart attack 6 weeks ago and had a stent fitted, yesterday was my first cardiac rehab session and essentially i fainted when my BP dropped to 60/30. Luckily it recovered quickly but its dented my confidence even further now in regards to excerise. Im glad you uploaded this, i will try this in a day or 2 time.
Hello Richard so how do we know we are progressing with these exercises? You mentioned our heart should go up or something. Thanks
Thank you, Richard for this video! I had takotsubo syndrome (sudden left ventricular dialated cardiomyopathy) several years ago and did go through a cardio rehab program. My heart returned to normal at that time, according to the cardio. I kept asking the cardiologists and endocrinologists here in the usa what could be the cause of this and the cause of my hypertension. They just said that "there is no cause, you just need to take drugs for life" several debilitated years later, I figured out that I had adrenal tumors secreting aldosterone. The endos and cardios told me that, "There is more money to be made from lifelong treatment than curing the problem". In the usa it is estimated that 20% of hypertensives have this issue. I had surgery to remove the tumors 2months ago and my BP is much better but I am having serious exercise intolerance and fatigue. I believe that it's due to adrenal fatigue so I'm trying to support my adrenals until they recover. I did the warm up today and plan on continuing this video at least until I can do the whole thing. My heart is not as strong as it was back then but I want to do anything I can to improve once more.
I like the one step forward one step back because life is like that sometimes 😝
In switching over from doing cardio interval training on a treadmill for more than three years, I enjoy this quite a bit more. The variety makes the time go past a lot faster and the footwork is already helping me feel more nimble. I love your low-key and encouraging style.
Good stuff
Really happy this is available for us as practice after my session at the hospital.
Been doing this for a few weeks and feel my stamina improved! Thank you!
Hi! I have really bad POTS so struggled doing this standing without feeling dizzy etc, I followed the movements from a seated position and it’s really helped me, thanks so much !
Stumbled upon this video looking for knee exercises due to an arthritis problem. I am happy I did! THIS IS A TRULY GREAT VIDEO! Clear in its purpose, explanation and demonstration, well organised - pleasant to watch:) THANK YOU!
Just diagnosed with stable angina and found this site. Great exercises, will try to do every day. Many thanks.
Hello Richard found the cardiac rehab workout few days ago. I had bypass surgery few months ago and my hospital based cardiac rehab will be ending in about 3 weeks. Glad I found it...and glad it's a bit of a challenge (you make me sweat lol) thanks
This is a great video! It has become my bible. I am 3 weeks post op from open heart surgery. Thank you!
Thank you, I just found this video as I have been searching for a suitable home exercise plan as I am not having much luck getting into a hospital cardiac rehab after having 2 stents placed over 2 weeks ago. This looks exactly what I was hoping to find and look forward to starting this in the morning (too late now as just about going to bed when I found this). I also read the additional warnings too.
