    I completed a stress test w/o any preparation while I was in the hospital. 4.5 minutes at 1 3/4 mph at a incline of 10. I was winded when I was done but I was very happy with myself. I’m a 71 year old grandma.

    There are so many unhelpful videos on this topic, but your video was actually very helpful! Thank you!

    Thanks for very clear instructions. It was recommended to me to check myself to see if I can pass level 4 as a technical diver, but the person recommending the test to me couldn’t tell me if it was to be done to max heart rate or 85%.

    I've been running laps on a flat track for a few weeks now, preparing for this test. I will start going on the treadmill and walking/Jogging with inclinations. Wish me luck 👍

    Great explanation vid thanks very much. One question about the stress test:
    Do we hold the rails of the treadmill or is it not allowed during the actual test?

    • @FitnessSolutionsPlus
      @FitnessSolutionsPlus  7 месяцев назад +1

      You can hold the front rails

    • @rolandlowe8945
      @rolandlowe8945 7 месяцев назад +1

      Awesome. I've been practicing without holding on. It's much more difficult. Probably a good way to prep for the test. Cheers. @@FitnessSolutionsPlus

      @@rolandlowe8945 yeah, when training, I recommend not holding. This way, when the test comes, and you're allowed to hold, you do better

    Hello I enjoyed your video and really appreciated your completeness, I need some guidance if you would.
    I need to take the test to get my 3rd class medical back after a heart stent. I am 67, and have been training for a while and can get through the first two stages, 10% @ 1.7 & 12% @2.5, but struggle in third stage and have never yet gotten to 9 minutes, and my heart rate is around 150 after the second stage. If I can not do the 9 minutes, with my heart rate within the 85% then is that a complete failure??

    • @FitnessSolutionsPlus
      @FitnessSolutionsPlus  8 месяцев назад

      Yes, unfortunately that's the case. Best of luck in your training

    Nice! Is tennis a good way to train for the stress test?

    • @FitnessSolutionsPlus
      @FitnessSolutionsPlus  Год назад

      Tennis is a lot of fun, and if you play singles, in general is good cardiovascular exercise.
      But unfortunately it won't help you pass the stress test, since it's not a deliberate attempt to improve cardiovascular fitness.
      With tennis, people may (or may not) get improvements in cardiovascular fitness, but even if they do, it's really a side benefit of tennis.

    I have a right branch block, it shows up time to time on ECG, but not all the time, some ECGs are normal. I recently had a CT Calcium score of 209 (58 year old) and my cardiologist wants me to do a stress test. Is this safe for me to do having this right branch block condition?

    • @FitnessSolutionsPlus
      @FitnessSolutionsPlus  Год назад +1

      Great question, but unfortunately I'm not able to answer it. You'd have to speak with a cardiologist.
