Sounds quite intriguing, and one that I must look into. Thanks, Liam for the advice!!OK...Walked up and down the stairs at my apartment 50 times...up...then down...equal 1, and so on and so forth. **Proof is on the floor!!!

It sounds like you're taking solid steps!Thank you, Alex!!Went to the gym at one of the sister facilities while my regular gym is doing some remodeling. The drive there was an easy trek because it was at 5am, but the drive home was a nightmare at 630am due to it was rush hour in Houston, which I didn't take that in consideration...oh well.Cardio: 20 minutes on the StairmasterFree Weights: 60 minutes working legs, shoulders, back, triceps, and armsStretches: 10 minute cool downWeight=304lbs **Proof is on the floor!!!

I suggest an Exercise Physiologist or similar because they are trained to deal with special populations (cardio, muscular etc). Your cardiologist will be helpful in finding someone. As having someone like that will help give recommendations to what your doing, and ensuring that it is safe for you to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate that because thus far, I'm not sure if some of the things I do are harmful or not. My PCP tells me to listen to my body, and if it hurts, stop, if it doesn't hurt, proceed/meet expectations.So far, even though I've pushed beyond expectations, I've not experienced any difficulties. When I visited the sister gym, at the end of the workout, and before and during my stretching cool down, it took me a little bit of time to slow my heart down...but I finally did.Today:Cardio: 50 up and down the stairs **Proof is on the floor!!!
