Road to Recovery - One Week Home
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2024
- I have been home now for about a week and for the most part it has all been good, slowly walking a bit longer and a bit faster, generally over 10,000 steps per day and walking as far as 2 miles in one go. Today I walked to A&W and back home which is a 3+ mile round trip. My walking pace is getting close to 3 miles per hour so this too is an improvement.
I still really need to watch my diet as over the weekend (super Bowl) I was not on my best eating behavior and as a result on Monday slipped back into AFIB for a bout 6 hours but thankfully I came out and back to Sinus Rhythm pretty quickly. Being in AFIB I do not feel very energetic and when I went for my walk while in AFIB I did feel a bit light headed at one point. When in Sinus Rhythm I feel really good and do not get short of breath or light headed at all even on longer faster walks.
My chest is still a bit sore being that the sternum was cut right down the middle for my open heart surgery, it will take at least 2 months for it to heal and right now I am exactly 4 weeks post surgery. This journey back to what will be my new normal heart function will take several months but I can say I feel a ton better than I did pre surgery so I am very optimistic I will be able to do most of what I was doing before I was having the heart trouble, just maybe a bit more conservative and not pushing myself too extreme. After all you only have one heart..

Bro you are looking great!
you look and sound much better! God Bless! You mentioned the gym eventually; what are your long term plans regarding type of training?
Pretty much the same but will have to take it a bit less intensive at least in terms of contest prep mode. Will probably not be as worried about size, just want to do my training and see where I get to, no real expectations.
Looking good brother!
Thanks, feeling a lot better for sure!
