I’m a 14 year old boy and I am skinny and right now I’m grinding my ass of to gain some muscle, having aortic valve disease can cause some obstacles for me though, I’m only allowed to squat bench and deadlift the bar (45lbs) as a safety precaution. I move past these obstacles but with safety I am getting stronger as I go, this is a real challenge and motivates me to get stronger, good luck to any of you guys out there doing the same, with this disease! Workout but workout with safety first
Do you have a genetic disease? Get a genetic test or speak to your doctor about Marfan Syndrome that might be the cause its a genetic disease people are born with
I know your frustration. I have a bicuspid aortic valve that caused an ascending aortic aneurysm. Mines 4.7 cm but I was born with this. I did drywall forn37 years lifting 12 ft sheetrock by myself and I work extremely hard. And I also have been building a house. So mine hasent grown but makes me wonder if I've had this my whole life and its just enlarged over a long period of time. Im 53 and am so frustrated cause I cant be the super human I used to be.
Excellent and useful information! Much appreciated!!💕
Should do a video on post aortic valve and aortic root replacement denoting to exercise post 1 year after surgery.
Thank you! Brilliant and simplified explanation. Helps a great deal. Aortic root 4.2. gronw from 3.8. All valves are good nothing not working. No insufficency.
Glad it helped!
Great work
Thank you for info
Very helpful.
Even for after an aortic dissection with a stent? I am 21 and was 19 and tore my aorta at water polo practice. I struggle on a day to day basis because I can’t reach that level of adrenaline anymore specially on 3 different bp medications. What exercises could I do?
I benched heavy for years in 400s plus. I had a ascending auortic aneurysm 5.2 cm discovered in late 2015 in jan 2016 had the operation at mount Sinai hospital ny dr Allen stewart!! Had whole aourtic arch replaced dr saved my valve. I had juiced (steriods) lifted heavy, and had high blood pressure 😶 dr Allen stewart said thought it was definitely blood pressure and or genetic weakness in that area. Get ct scan's with contrast for checkup of all arteries, heart and aorta..Do not do nuclear stress tests inaccurate the insurance companies do not like to cover ct scan's..ct scan saved my life, nuclear stress test and echo never saw the 5.2 cm killer.
You are absolutely correct. The echocardiogram showed I have bicuspid aortic value but it took a CT scan to show my 5.0 cm auortic aneurysm.
Did your doc think the benching could have caused it ? I'm at 4.2 and I'd love to stabilize and not go under the blade
I'm searching for causes as well. Recent echo showed 4cm ascending aorta, I lift heavy and do BJJ 3 x per week, now I'm told I have to give it up. I never had high bp, never smoked, and no genetic issues that I know of. It doesn't make sense. I've only been lifting 10 years, I'm at a loss to explain it.
@@drsssssssss im exactly the same with u and im nearly 29 now got diagnozed by mistake like 8-9 months ago when i was going to do a cartilage transplant on my knee
How is your quality of life since the surgery?
I want to weight life so bad unfortunately I was diagnosed with a brain avm. It used to be 2.5cm now it's 2.3cm Doctor could only coil one feeder. I have to go back and get the rest done sometime this year. Man I miss working out 😔
I had an aortic aneurym repair a week before.
I am a powerlifter.
The doctor said that my aorta is clean now.
Will i be able to return to powerlifting?
Since being diagnosed with ascending thoracic aortic aneurysm of 3.9 cm I have been very careful of how I exercise. I am told it is okay to do cardio but not push too hard and I can do bodyweight exercise and light dumbbells. I do higher repititions to get a good workout.
@Jeffrey J Interesting, I'm at 4.2 and I also have acid reflux
I’m at 6cm. Might need surgery soon
@@chosenone5536 I am sorry to hear that. Prayers it goes well and that you have a good recovery. I was told if it grows to 5.5 they will send me to a surgeon. I am now at 4cm. Not too bad just yet. I hope it stops growing.
@@25inspector they discovered I have one. My mother and brother had abdominal one. Mine is 3.5 may I ask how your doing ? And how long have you known and the size it was when you found out? And do they grow fast? My Heart Dr last year said I don’t need to worry hmm 🤔. I go back in March it will be a year.
@@sherrid5315 Mine was 3.9 and now is at 4.0 cm. I have known for a little over 2 years. I am doing well thank you. I exercise daily but don't push too hard. I do walking, cycling, bodyweight training and light dumbbells. I am told just be mindful of it and don't worry. Follow a heart healthy diet and don't smoke. I never was a smoker anyway. I go back every six months for testing like stress test, nuclear stress testing, holter monitors and echocardiogram. I have always had high blood pressure since I was a child! Genetic defects. So I do my best to stay healthy and live my life. I avoid lifting anything super heavy and it seems to be okay. There is no need to be concerned unless it gets over 5cm...then they will send me to a thoracic surgeon. Live your life and stay healthy and happy. Best wishes to you.
hello Mr. Dr. Sir, can an aortic arch anuerysm grown in size due to jogging or running. Kindly answer this doubt, i am not doing any sort of exercises, can i do jogging and running with the aortic aneurysms.
I have congenetal biscupid aortic stenosis and regurgitation. im 26 i exersize very hard doing cardio and weight training i have never experienced any symtoms or had to stop due to my heart. i just have an echocardiagram every 4-5 years. however whats the chances of my condition worsening if i continue to persue my exersize program i am hopeing to join the british army and im currently appealing my rejection on medical grounds at the moment. As they declare me unfit due to my condition however the do accecpt appeals on the grounds that my condition is stable and unlikely to worsen i just have to backbthat up with medical evidence
How u now.??
How’s it going now.
Does ur cardiologist let u lift heavy weights?
What i do is , measure my BP before exercising, if its already on the high side i don't do weights , ill do cardio until it comes down, also i monitor the BP during Weights, good luck to everyone.
Is the plank ok?
So would push-ups and pull-ups be considered heavy lifting?
I bet they are
Don’t do any vValsalva maneuver
Two years before I found out I had this I was doing seated bench leg presses at 150-160 lbs. I wonder if that started the aneurysm?
@@PanamaRose I doubt it. Exercise is healthy. aneurysms are frequently genetic. Atherosclerosis can cause them. Poor Diet. Smoking.
I am a 68 year old woman who had a CT scan and it showed a 4 cm ascending arota aneurysm. I like to work in my yard but get winded easily..i trim and weed my whole yard and I am not sure if I should stop doing this. Any suggestions would be appreciated
Hi Pamela, I was recently diagnosed with ascending aortic aneurysm, mine is 4.5cm. I'd like to know more about the exercises and activities we can do. Probably best to ask our own doctors. I've seen some suggestions on the internet but I'd like more specifics on what we can do. Hope you are well!
I’m so sad to hear this.
@2:58 U get the answer YES!
You are the true hero here. Thank you
No... that's not the answer. The answer was heavy lifting has the potential to cause it to stretch, whereas cardiovascular exercise is GOOD for the heart and the aorta.
@@malvient but the I read you should do 80% less of you max hr
Yea yea at over 5.5 cm raising you heartrate and blood pressure can do u some real good!
This is glorious, I been tryin to find out about "how is an abdominal aortic aneurysm diagnosed?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Piyayla Outstanding Primacy - (do a search on google ) ? It is a great one of a kind product for discovering how to reduce your blood pressure minus the normal expense. Ive heard some interesting things about it and my brother in law got amazing success with it.
Welp, time to stop lifting so heavy 😂
shirt does this mean i cant get out of exercise
So basically calisthenics would be okay right as long as I don't go to far??can anyone tell me
I just want to know if I can join the military, reserve military with a 4.2 Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm. I hate the internet.
