Anyone here with a Pacemaker ?

[Drunkonjack]

Hi, My wife 31 years old is on her second pacemaker and is interested in starting some weight training . I'm 41 and have been doing it for over 25 years but with her condition I'm at a loss for lots of help .

She will be needing a program and some tips .

Any help will be great .

This is a matter that needs to be discussed with your wife's cardiologist, not laypeople on a message board. Absolutely NOBODY, except the doctors who are familiar with your wife's medical history, is qualified to make any suggestions about an exercise program for her.

I second this. I would not feel comfortable giving advice to someone with a heart condition that I know nothing else about. I have quite a bit of knowledge, but none of it includes an MD license

She needs to discuss with her cardiologist, or an exercise physiologist - NOT a run-of-the-mill personal trainer.
