New publication: We mapped 15 years of research on nutrition education in #cardiacrehab (n=502).
Despite growth, it’s rarely studied as a distinct, theory-informed intervention - and gaps persist globally.

#CardiacRehab, #PostOpRoss, Month 9 update:
1. At this point in my recovery, I’m starting to let myself drift more into RPE 7 - 9 zones. So far, it looks like making my heart work a little harder is starting to show up on my watch’s VO2Max estimate.

Almograve, Portugal, foundation workout with Tommy Rivs and ifit.
#CardiacRehab, Month 7, #PostOpRoss:
Today is the first day I’ve felt like pre-op me -> in a good way. I was asymptomatic before surgery. I was putting in 7 - 10 miles on my treadmill a week pre-surgery. I had a great 1.5 mile interval run this morning.
Maybe my anemia is getting better.

#CardiacRehab, Month 7, #PostOpRoss:
- It’s nice to be doing the occasional workout at trainer speed again.
- I think I finally traced my random low blood pressure issue to screwing up my meds at night. I caught myself almost taking my amlodipine twice in a day and that would definitely do it.
#CardiacRehab
I annually do the Rim-to-River Grand Canyon run.
My post-surgical status is about where I was in the summer of 2023. Speed was 90% and incline was 95%.
The great news is my calorie burn is close to 80% of that year’s estimate, which means I’m not working nearly as hard for it.

#cardiacRehab #PostOpRoss Month 6:
I’ve spent the last 2 days re-establishing my resting blood pressure.
Some time in the last 2 months, most likely from either adding Humira or subtracting naproxen, my systolic blood pressure has dropped about 10 points.
#CardiacRehab #PostOpRoss, Month 6:
I seem to be having post-exercise hypotension problems. I don’t know if it’s from going on Humira, coming off naproxen, or what. But it’s fucking up my morning routine.

I’m still having difficulty with plank variations. But that’s to be expected.
Rivs Run Club Week 1 with Tommy Rivs & ifit in Carmel, California.
#CardiacRehab:
I’ve started adding incline to my walks again to increase my heart rate and calorie burn.
This ‘run’ was about 80% walking. I also did the runs at 6% incline.
