High blood pressure, or Hypertension, is bad news ❌

It can lead to a host of health problems that you don't want anything to do with, trust me.

Getting it checked takes a few minutes and is simple and painless. So do your heart a favour and get it checked out ♥️

Pacemakers are small implantable devices that manually beat the chambers of your heart ♥️

Usually implanted because your Sinus Node has stopped working properly (often called Sick Sinus Syndrome)

Pacemakers either have 1 , 2 or 3 cables depending on how much support your heart needs, and some can also act as a defibrillator to counteract certain arrhythmias ⚡

I have a 3 cable (Biventricular) pacemaker defib (CRT-D) because well... My hearts pretty broken 💔

Got any questions on pacemakers? Drop them in the comments below 👇🏻

Would you know how to help someone who was having a cardiac arrest? 🤔

CPR is one of those skills that's better to have and not need, than need it and not have it. Trust me, I should know 😬

It can be the difference between life and death.

I'm not a qualified trainer, but I have had to use CPR and successfully saved a life 🙏🏻

If you want proper training, I'd highly recommend looking in to RevivR course. It takes 15 minutes and you can learn from home.

Fun fact; many HF medications lower your blood pressure to ease the strain on your heart ❤️

And when you take as many as me, that postural hypotension (low BP) hits hard 😬

"Heart Failure" and "Ejection Fraction" for Dummy's... Explained by a dummy.

In simple terms, heart failure means your heart is not pumping blood effectively to meet the body's needs 📉

Ejection Fraction is the percentage of blood that leaves your heart when it beats 🧮

While not always linked, there's usually an association between the two:

🟥 Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is ≤ 40%
🟧 Heart failure with mid-range ejection fraction (HFmEF) is 40%-49%
🟩 Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is ≥50%

The good news is that with proper care, both of these can be managed and you can still live a long and full life. That's my plan, anyway 🤷🏻‍♂️

Hello there, I'm Andy 👋🏻

I have PRKAG2 syndrome, a rare genetic condition which causes multiple issues with the heart, a Biventricular CRT-D implant and I've survived a cardiac arrest 👍🏻

Despite all that, I stay active and life a full live. For a while I've contemplated sharing my story, in an effort to educate and inspire 🙏🏻

Well, after a lot of procrastination, I figured I might as well make a start 🤷🏻‍♂️

If you'd like to learn more about heart health, fitness and maybe have some laughs along the way; drop me a follow.

See you again soon ♥️

I'm truly honoured to have been awarded CPR Hero at Awards on Tuesday night ♥️

A fantastic night, where I met some incredible people and heard some inspirational stories.

Words can't do justice to how grateful I am. 🙏🏻

It was a privilege to be able to share my "heart story" - made a even sweeter by Andrew stepping up to give his experience and story as well.

Having received life-savinh CPR and then giving it, I realised I had a powerful message to share with the world:

Learn CPR.

Revivr training takes around 15 minutes, and anyone can do it.

It's much better to have it and never need it, than need it and not have it.

Thank you to both BHF & for the opportunity.

Big news 👀

Happy to announce that, after keeping the application door closed, I'm opening up a limited number of spaces for new coaching clients 👍🏻

Those who know me, know I've been focused on building and the supporting the team and members there for the last year.

I now feel I'm in a good position to take on some more private clients, but I'm only looking to work with a handful of people to ensure I can give them my 100% and get them the results they want 💪🏻

If you'd like to know more, feel free to reach out and let's organise a time for a proper chat 🙂
