Lifelong rehabilitation of cardiac vascular patients
In Slovenia, about 7.500 people die every year due to cardiovascular complications. Despite the fact that we have made the most progress in the treatment of patients with coronary disease in the last period, this disease requires five lives every day. Therefore, it is not surprising that the number of members in Coronary Clubs across Slovenia has grown up to 3.670.
Ruthless statistics, patient care and contribution to the lifelong rehabilitation of patients with cardiovascular diseases have been the reason for the creation of this manual.
The manual is written on the basis of expert knowledge and many years of experience working with heart patients in the Coronary Club of Ljubljana and the Coronary Society of Gorenjska. Exercises are selected and described so that individuals can perform them independently.
The fact that we are one of the few in Slovenia who carry out lifelong rehabilitation of cardiovascular patients has motivated me to write a manual that will further enrich this human practice.
Let this manual help you to restore the health of your heart again.
Tina Magdalenič, Professor of Physical Education
Physical activity improves heart function, lowers blood pressure, reduces body weight, positively influences fat and sugar metabolism, and increases skeletal muscle strength. It improves the quality of life and reduces the risk factors for the development of cardiovascular disease.
Physical exercise is the central part of rehabilitation regardless of the type of cardiovascular disease, so it is important that it is carefully planned and controlled. This avoids recurrent health complications.
I have prepared a set of seven different exercises for you. These are:
- Aerobic exercise without accessories,
- Aerobic exercise with a stick,
- Aerobic exercise on a chair or at a chair,
- Aerobic exercise with an elastic band,
- Aerobic exercise with a ball,
- Aerobic exercise to improve balance,
- Aerobic exercise with light weights.
Each exercise lasts 35 minutes and is customized so that you can perform it at home with the manual and video content.
